Drivvel: Gervais/I’ll never be famous

Wrote so many beautiful poems tonight in my head but would not reach night stand to jot down...preferring sleep. But, it’s 3 a.m., so this drivel...

On Ricky Gervais:
Now Streaming...

Truth is refreshing
Truth is fleeting
We live in fantasy
Dream like Hollywood
Always believing
If we mean well
With no actions, Just words
Our invisible tapestry of rhetoric
Cannot tear
If no one can find a thread to pull

You yanked
We could feel it
The soft underbelly
Of fleeting actors
Holding glued costumes and
Hypocrisy. We knew
Here’s a man undeterred
Who should fear
Undeterred, has balls

Truth is out there
Woven thin, invisible to nude eyes
We believe in it
Sometimes touch
But too fragile
Don’t handle it like you
It cannot be grasped
By the likes of us and
Will we hear from you again?
Did you know you built
A right platform
For liberals hanging?
When do the executioners come?

It’s Hollywood
With enough time and money
They’ll write a happy ending
You had a role in it
Now cue Tom Hanks
To play you in the lead role
Soon streaming on ISIS.

“Let pens be sabers like your sharp tongue, tweeted to Ricky Gervais tonight.

I took up a blade:

"Drivel: Gervais/I’ll never be famous" 

Sabers. Is that ASR or 13+? Can’t let these word weapons be tools in the hands of our babes.”
