So busy showing off
One may not see one's own vanity
so busy comparing
Multitudes on the bottom rung
Overlooked badly faring
Vanity soaked in new colors
One hopes will represent the official
That will have honour and place
One's own recognition initially
A shield against conceivable disgrace
That one's own ritual be ordained by trinkets
Of one's own crowd pleasing creation
Enchanted wine blessed chalice drink it
Robes and ritual simulate elation
Sculpt God's own eye and wink it
So busy inside a unique comparison
each lense an aspect of life
Vanity is a forced smile prison
A career, children, husband, wife
Measure up, consensus so implicit
