Juggernaut

The juggernaut

is a man inscribed

on pillars of fortune

his longevity suspect

his popularity a bygone

conclusion, among words

stories and tales.

I read as a child of him

by him

my memories vague

but pictures flash

and the dictionary.

Now as a grown up man

wonder if he still lives

or his musings

human enough.
