Quixotic exploits
in multiple life-genres
satisfied, I am
lacking though, in
satisfactory resolutions
ambiguity suits me
beguiling, am I, in my
befuddlement of others
confounding doubters
mirror voyeurism
minus Dorian Gray ego,
Carly Simon panache
sing anyway, I cannot
dapper enough, I am
charm, it is, carries me
sophisticated enough
I know lost causes from
heroic potential
onward I trudge, in
lightness of step, spirit
ever vigilant
ready for action
sublime or fool’s errand
poised to charge on
never possessing
the courage to
believe in nothing
