What Is Stardust Worth?
Updated: Mar 15, 2022
Not the man who fishes
nor the man who barks
Not the man who hikes
nor the man who types
Not the man who drinks
nor the man who fixes the pipes
under the sink
Not the man who fights
nor the man who stays up all night
Not the ladies who seem crazy
nor the man who seems lazy
Not the child with attitude
nor the dude flying above altitude
Not the singer
nor the witch
Not the president
nor his sins
Not the lover
nor the loved
Not the nun
nor the saint
Not the school teacher
nor the preacher
Not the gym rat
nor the doormat
Not the photographer
nor the dog owner
Not the vet
nor the doctor
Not the barista
nor the barber
Not the liar
nor the trier
None of us are perfect
None of us are permanent,
and yet,
either none of us matter,
or we all do.
Stardust,
full of jealousy and lust,
given life on earth,
and
what is it worth?
and yet,
either none of us matter,
or we all do.
Stardust,
full of jealousy and lust,
given life on earth,
and
what is it worth?
What is it worth…?
