I'm sorry to take up your time
maybe I'm not worth a moment
sitting here on this street corner
only I don't want your money
rest assured, I don't need spare change
really, I'm not here for fast cash
yet, I am apologetic
to defend my crass behavior
on the cross, the messiah died
trouble comes in threes, a shoe drops
another shoe falls, the two thieves
kick a stone at idealism
empirical evidence proves
until we can know what we now
posit as true and not fiction
yes, I affirm what is unknown
oblige me but a moment more
ugly, little troll that I am
restlessly intellectual
temporal reality begs
insensitively, the question
mark my words, the truth is fiction
empires rise and fall, still I sit
