Feet of Concrete


Feet of Concrete


Our hero takes strike three
Followed by a collective groan

A chorus of  boos soon follows
The mob hates to be disappointed

They have invested way too much
In their devalued fallen idol
                            
Love is such a delicate flower
Admiration a wisp in the wind

Today’s god, tomorrow’s demon
We build them up to knock them down

All to make us momentarily forget
About the strike outs in our own box score
