And of your 15 minutes?

Question: And of your 15 minutes!?

Addiction

Trodding away these 15 timers
envious the floods, the adoration
bestowed upon newbies born!.
Yelling, screaming, pleading, they go

Reverence, desired… never enough
diets deprived demand attention!.
Tempers flare, egos bruise… rebel
they hear, sense, feel the word, passé!.

This roller ride now coasting
drifting, dimming…dying
no opiates can sate ego’s tremor
only death and final lights…Www@QuestionHome@Com
