Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Mania of the Moment

Megalomaniacs 'tis said
Are mentally disturbed in that
They have delusions in the head
And think they are Godsentocrat,
Because they have such mass appeal
In hyping problems of the day
And do it with theatric zeal.
A piper who knows what to play.
Throughout all of world history
All of the great and not so great
Have been inclined so mentally.
'Tis not from God, but man's made fate.

Is Beck megalomaniac
Or envied by those without knack?
