Beware, he’s a performer
And don’t even think you’re the audience
It’s right there
If you look close enough
The easy smile?
Watch how he tilts his head every single time
Like he’s watched himself in the mirror
He’s got a witty comeback for everything?
Forceful sarcasm honed from nights lying awake
Nights of emptiness
Beware of the ones that think they have something to prove
He loves that you laugh at his jokes?
Watch his smile
It’s not for you
It’s a pat on his own back that he did good
Because he’s not a performer for you
He’s a one man show
And he is his own audience
He is the man he is trying to convince
That he is what he is
A man
The whole world knows this
He will never know this
Beware
