Autobiograph
Go live
Take more
Than give

Mystique get dressed
The future's a mine
Dumpyard salvage
Squandered time

Frugality beware
Hunger can kill
Potlatch in a snare
Surplus spill

Fact fill matter
Gaze take a peek
Praise please flatter
Promise go seek

Opportunity step aside
Honesty lie dead
Humility lay low
Shame raise your head

Invention be born
Necessity oh mother
Divinity pray who
'S the legitimate father

Triumph turn weary
Obscurity thrill
Oblivion unravel
Euphoria stand still

Courage take refuge
Fragility play host
Nothingness never
Give up the ghost

Trajectory meander
Objective reload
Longing renounce ending
Destiny behold

Miniscule explode
To an enormous yawn
God take a vacation
To a greater beyond

Sleuth stalk keeper
Rock-hard try
Secret sink deeper
Deeper and deeper
Secret sink deeper
Into big fat lie

'Self portrait as a drowned man'
