Life/lie

Living the life
Living the lie
All these shadows 
Hovering above
Gargoyles on the narrow high roofs
Watching and judging from above
Silent marble faces
With eyes of doom
Glazing from distance
Watching and judging 
Every move
Life is different 
Down below
Spoils and pleasures
Appealling to the unwise
Unwise
Trying to join in
Trying to blend in
Jealous from within
Wanderer walks the scorched land
Trying to find 
the greener side of the white picket fence
