They see the bedraggled knotted gray hair hanging long and dirty. They see the filth etched into my weathered face. Disgusted faces turn from the rags I wear and their armor of dust. And they smell the ever present stench, proof of my land fill life style.

But they never comprehend the mischievous grin, the honest deep belly laughs, the Cheshire Cat racing behind my eyes. The true gold less than copper to their hurried eyes.

My exterior is rough, even revolting, but my interior is rich, ten thousand kingdoms rich. Inside I am the Starship Lancelot slaying space dragons. I dance on clouds made of jewels and feast with an all star cast from this cosmic comedy. My mirth is directed at you, oh, suited one with the expensive briefcase rapidly on your way towards a stress induced heart attack. Your disdain is your rotted interior and you’ve missed out on the greatest game.
