shall I describe the exterior of the continental
male
he's tall, blond, smooth and exceedingly pale
not to mention mannered in a way that is
considered impeccably well
at the bachelor's ball you'll find him to be quite
the masculine bell
over his false lover's words do not traipse and
trip
for he will quite easily your wayward wings
cleverly clip
with so much as a tiny snip
our of your grasp happiness will slip
money is power and power is money
and that is one cold hard fact that you
would be better off not to forget honey
with top authority
service is plenty
and within a vast full scale range
but for parasites of the upper class
you must find yourself a gentle yet full
proof way to disengage
a year or just a week into the luxury life
of the fair jet set you'll acquire either the
soul of a hardened sage
or you may find yourself by a small crowded
poolside snorting coke through hundred dollar
bills in a frenzied addict's joyous rage
I find myself at this stage ready to flea from
this grim picture I've drawn of fantasy/reality's
severely corrupt social cage
my fantasy I find through the aid of the pen
my reality lays upon the page
that is truly the way it should be
for someone with my intellect and of my
approximate age.......
