Importance is an illusion 

Often coveted by mankind…

Top-down theories –

Keeps reality blind.

Fireworks are quiet

To the sound of bubbles’ burst-

And the mirror unforgiving-

To fantasy’s deadly curse.

Piles build mountains 

Luck fades away…

The importance of the lesson

Lost to yesterday.

A helping hand is destined 

To follow the beggar’s need…

But only if protected-

From the dirty hand of greed.
