The Riddle

The Riddle

I am each and all of these;
A king of liars, a prince of thieves,
A weary soldier seeking peace,
A jealous soul, a righteous priest,
A clown, a fool, an artisan,
Midnight cowboy, mystic man.

A joyrider that journeys far,
I ride the rollercoaster car,
From generous, to `wary of’,
From hate, to greed, to lust, to love,
From love to fear, from fear to hope,
Continuous kaleidoscope,

Another pattern with each twist,
From socialite to socialist,
From poet to philosopher,
From me to him,
From here to there,
From little child to grown-up man,

Please, someone,
tell me
what I am…
