grander design

"Behind every great man… is a woman rolling her eyes"
~ Bruce Almighty, Steve Koren and Mark O'Keefe

no truer wit could ever befit
my delusions of grander design— the one where i am indeed!
inclined to believe
that my fate bows to me.

so, despite my foolish aspirations, i press and press, and press on in spite of the mockery— the ridicule and the rolling eyes of all those wits who despise
simply because they cannot see
all the grandeur of possibility
which lies beyond
the back of their head.

thus, i press on,
even if i never hear my song
and i am never duly appreciated,
whilst wronged a thousand times—
before i am dead.
