An old one… cheers.

I’ll paint you a portrait

A portrait of a hero

Who had it all to lose

But!.. Didn’t own a thing

Saves no lives nor money

Nor kills nor worships any

.

He covers the world but?

Has no home controls it all

But!.. rules none but his heart

He shares the Sun

Bares the Rain

That hides his tears

Of? [ fame] [Shame] Pain?

.

Oct/1986…

Portrait pauper prince or queen.
