Among us
Walks like anyone you know

An inventor
With brave ideas
Revolutionary undertones

A master
Of theater
In disguise on the world’s stage

The lions
Free in the jungle
The men starve and die in a cage

In rage
The animosity is candid
As frustrations are displayed

A guide
To follow
Into the deserts of palms

A book
To show you
The eventual path into my arms

A scholar
Teaches his disciples
Then left to their decisions, as appropriately entitled

One performance
This is the recital
These waters belong to the dainty crocodile

In denial
His razor sharp teeth
Attached, primed, and neatly filed

A genius
Among us
Walks like anyone you know

An inventor
With brave ideas
Revolutionary undertones

A master
Of theater
In disguise on the world’s stage

The lions
Free in the jungle
The men starve and die in a cage

In rage
The animosity is candid
As frustrations are displayed

A guide
To follow
Into the deserts of palms

A book
To show you
The eventual path into my arms

A scholar
Teaches his disciples
Then left to their decisions, as appropriately entitled

One performance
This is the recital
These waters belong to the dainty crocodile

In denial
His razor sharp teeth
Attached, primed, and neatly filed
