This is dedicated to all of the movie stars, pop icons and televangelists et al. Fame We used to carve idols out of stone Then we learned to work gold Now we carve them out of flesh Graven images that fit the mold Religions come and we believe For a moment or two we belong Comforted by our common ground Together we feel strong But idols always break Or get melted down So we cling to another We find a new brother Another king we crown The idols of the flesh decay Or fade beyond the light But always there’s another god To lead us through the night Our idols of the flesh had best beware You must teach the words we want to hear Or else we’ll break you, cut you down You’d better ****ing live in fear Sing while you may |

Hmmm... I never thought of fame like that before, but it gives me a broader perspective on it. Great Work. ![]() ~* Megs *~ I love the lines some men use to get us into bed. "Please, I'll only put it in for a minute." What am I, a microwave? |
