I DON'T WANT THE FAME

     No place to call home, a nomad destined, forever to roam;
Run, run, run!  No where to hide.  Lost, mired down in grief;
Because no one wants to accept you for who you've become;

But a false legacy built to get you killed.  Hated because you survived
a 40 year old plot;

Despied becuase you can never do right, the cross game at its finest;

Your body cold and shivering like muscle spasms, like a crying child sniveling, frightened to death.

just a couple of misspellings, but very good. Hope to read more of yours.

A pungent satire that could be expanded in essence of the plot. What is your central or primary audience?

I like this, but the title confused me, it just didn't seem to fit with the poem itself. Which is full of great lines, such as "hated because you survived a 40 year old plot".

When your name is called out or is familiar with a lot of people it is almost as being a famous moviestar that is the reason for the shades you go 'hollywood' on they as when you not stutin nobody

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
