God With No Face

Lost inside the stories of other people
I forget the role I wanted to play
so when I step out on the stage of history
I am the fool who thinks he is the king.
I watch movies and television shows
about all the kings who once ruled the world,
how they all rise to shine among the stars
then crumble to the dust beneath our feet.
I sit on the couch in my nowhere home
and watch tragedy of their lives unfold,
glad I bear no responsibility
to play the clown who thinks he is the king.
All religions and political parties
are formed around the personality
of one person who played their archetype
so I become the true god with no face.
