by Michael Levy
Saints 'n' sinners,
melancholy 'n' joyful,
downtrodden 'n' superstar,
king 'n' pauper,
everyone receives an Oscar,
for the roles they perform
as they exit the stage of life;
alas, there is no time
to thank the entire cast, the variety
in society, for in a blink, the meek
disappear, along with the mighty.
