Outwardly
he is Dazzler Shower of Gold
charismatic
OVERWHELMING
in his persona’s Force
Inwardly
he is Masquerade Façade Cloak and Cover-Up
a fallacious cuckoo-bird
This is the thunderbolt of a white swan’s wings
The moment when the hood
slips
and the mask
turns round
inexplicable (in his mind) are words such as
Serial Predator
Prowler from whom the vulnerable
shrink
Zeus lurks

A shower of gold in a cesspit
