Ego Boost
it is a game
i know,
i see,
an ego boost
for a fragile reality
a respite
from your insanity
i see,
i was just used
to prop up
the self esteem
which had
started to lean
it is just
a soiled dream
that kicks me hard
in my spleen
it is a game
i know,
i see,
an ego boost
for a fragile reality
James Garratt – October 2010
