he's hollywood

he's a walking boy
he's a laughing boy
losing his shadow he says
to feel lighter
he loves beer
but downs chardonnay 
it makes him feel good
even better
when he's in hollywood

he's a lonely boy
is a loving boy
a much loved boy
with his guard up
he'd like to disappear
from this madness
so he sleeps too much

don't wanna be out there
so just a little distance please
he says he's not afraid of darkness
fame is his disease
dangling his feet from his roof
says he's kind to those the world
forgets to be kind to

but he's got a cool girl
and they roll way back
he's taken by the little things
carolina boy with laughter
in his blood
'round here
we call him hollywood

A poem I wrote about Zach Galifianakis . I live about thirty five minutes from his farm in NC. This is my creative effort for someone who always makes me laugh. This man is deeper than we know and such a talent.
