In Celebration of a Rain Cloud's Glimmer

 

 

The idea of celebrity, scary

At the funeral there isn't a casket to carry

 

The celebrity illusion burns

The longevity illusion burns

Only a word defined; letters float, reaching high

Ashes rain down on those who worship.

 

Open your mouth for a taste of them

Fame sizzle the tongue

A grasp of an ash is a foolish task to partake in

They would never touch your hand if they could avoid it.

 

The smell of ash rain is sweet, it waters the eyes

Burn yourself in a money bed

They will be horrified and make biopics

Fame lost in the flames.

 

Unrecognizable corpse, the funeral is funny

Wipe a tear with a bill and throw it away

 

No, burn bills before others can touch them

“The scariest thing is the undeserving.”

 

That's what you believe from a high tower

Wave those dreams away

They all form below

Pray heavy, no shower after hours.
