The Killer

I’ve never been one for small talk
Water cooler coffee clenching do you know so and so
And when you tell me I’ll act surprised
We’ll I’ll be. I know right?
Come on, let’s feed this ego or try as we might
From here whence we go
Fashion me with authenticity or let me go naked
My wealth is Christ or let me go poor tonight
My only shame the tendencies of whence I came
Vanity is such a killer so steer clear
Forward is our direction at a pace that we can’t see
And then we’ll come to the end to begin again
The end of ourselves
If only we could get out of each others closets
And into each other’s hearts.
