Nowhere On the Scene
Jealousies.
Pettiness.
Greed and corruption.
Selfishness and self importance.
'Weren't these factions mentioned,
Years ago?
As a basis that would begin to unravel...
All that then which had been valued? '
Yes.
But it wasn't popular then to confess it publicly.
But today...
Who knew,
Pretentions kept would be devalued?
And those once regarded as misfits and mavericks,
Are nowhere on the scene voicing their opinions.
'Perhaps they have given up? '
No.
They have probably discovered,
A dead horse beatened...
Is one dead horse many are making attempts,
To revive to once again ride.
