That dude you so admire
All smooth and debonair
Struts about
with the confident air
of a hyper cool superstar
He seems
to have his shit together
He's the legend we fans
saddled with our own
personal anxieties
can only dream to be
But perception ain't always reality
Too often they are dreams
of how we wish things played
For while the confidence man projects
nary a care in the world
like an iceberg
we only see the tip
and not
the underlying despair
trapped beneath
our hero's churning sea
of suppressed insecurities
