Artist
The crowd was surrounding a new one
Can any join this group of admirers?
From the center of attention came a buzzing
Oh, no, not another Dizzy-Lizzy mouth organ.
Sing-speaking rhythms of a trapped soul
Searching for the key-holder, trapped delusions
Imagined bars blocking him within himself
A common, new but common, dilution mind
As the crowd disperses, the loudness fades
Exposed as ‘just-another-crack' in the human soul.
