It's All Greek

Hurried crowds 

in a fray

Those dreary clouds 

of gray --

Shining rays 

that 

light the day

Winding paths 

that 

lead the way --

Blooming blossoms 

of May

Looming gloom 

of doomsday --

A terrific 

or 

terrible day

That for which 

you've prayed

Divine denials 

and delays

Something 

Someday 

Someway --

Yeas and nays

that people say

The same games

that people play --

Fortress raised

Fortune made

Cache of swag

Sway and cachet --

The graceful glaze

of potter's clay

Skyscraping monuments 

shaped --

How tall and big is

all this anyway?

Iota.

(Remember I told ya.)

It's Only Temporary Anyway.
