Part of the burden of being real is
Fickle feelings of far-fetched fantasies
of a full fulfillment forge fitful forces of false
hope and determination.
Part of the burden of being real is
Drole drops of demonizing depression
Drip demeaning and diminishing your diligence
Part of the burden of being real is
Belittling bystanders backlashing the balance of the burden
of being real and the lowly lusts of living lacking nothing
Being real disillusions us
Is that really what we need?
