Ode to Billy by Uriel TovarAnd just like that
With a final flailing of
A distorted guitar
We say goodbye to our
Adolescent hero
The veil of fanboydom
Lifted revealing a poor sport
Past his prime
With a trail of broken dreams
And broken hearts behind him. 12/19/2014 Author's Note: at the almost acoustic christmas

Posted by Leslie Ann Eisenberg on 12/25/14 at 01:43 AM i enjoyed the opening line, and especially "The veil of fanboydom." honest, nostalgiac, a fitting farewell. xopk |
