For all you Boomers out there.

 

A Man Not Named Winston

By Mark Pearce © 2007

 

 

A bit of a messiah complex at times.

A writer.

A fool.

Troubadour of love,

Venomous when confronted with deformity, propriety, or power.

 

Visionary.

Dyslexic.

A seeker

Negotiating a world of blind alleys.

A Spaniard in his own write.

 

Needy.

Confident.

Artistic.

Self-defined. Inner directed.

Cruel and loving.

 

Acerbic.

Rockin’.

Spokesman without a filter.

Too many ciggies.

Addicted to musical discovery.

 

Socially aware.

Socially disturbed.

Socially active.

Can’t let it rest.

Pain in song.

 

Abandoned.

Abandoning.

Flash anger.

Poet.

A dreamer –

 

But not the only one.

Mark,
I love the Don Quixote reference and the five line stanzas really worked for this one.
