The Rejection Prophecy

The rejection prophecy;
a strange beast that beats
its hooves across my head,
self-fulfilling melody unrelenting.

Looking to doubt
doubtless faith.
Surprise, surprise,
I see clearly once again.

(Clear as mud.)

Waterproof Blonde
scatter a calming crescendo
across the pain of my brain
and tears well in my eyes.

I'm forgotten, I'm denied,
so why cry
because self-fulfilled am I
to an endless prison
called the fifth wheel.

Abandonment to oblivion.
Danger of self-fulfilling,
self-pitying
prophecies of the moment.
