red herring

Today was special because it was his last

He’d lived his life fully and fast

Experiences vast

There was a mold but he broke the cast

Some live their life below deck but he’s on the mast

Swinging around with reckless abound

Looking up and looking out

Creativity rich not a doubt of a drought

Didn’t notice the little people fighting over clout

Don’t care what that’s all about

The petty grudge holders with their thought heavy boulders

Shoulders drooping worthless words mouth pooping

Someone wise who’s since met his demise

Said words were red herrings

How you could scare things

People too went shew shew shew

When your words made them feel blue blue blue

Even if to you they were true true true
