Tracking the Lizard King
No one understands me
do they even try
Nobody tries to save me
they only watch me die
Pushing life to limits
Searching for the door
Looking for some meaning
There must be something more
Experiencing everything
gotta live up to the name
A poet's not a person
An artist's short of sane
Loving for the minute
Living for the day
Try to find alternatives
to the settled ways
I only ask you come with me
come along just for the ride
We'll take the trip together
break through to the other side
No one can understand me
not even if they try
Nobody wants to save me
It's more fun to watch me die
I wanna be a superstar
meet pretty women, drive fancy cars
I wanna learn to fly
and live and die by twenty-nine

About the author:
Mark Finnemore lives in California with his beautiful wife Panji, who helped him learn that even the rockiest road can lead to a happy ending. Mark is currently working on a novel entitled "Love & Taxes", which he hopes will one day be not only finished, but published and found at your local book store as well.
Mark has a story included in an upcoming "young adult" anthology entitled Spirited, which is donating all proceeds to 826 National, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting students ages 6 - 18 with their writing skills, and to helping teachers inspire their students to write.
