Kanye West

He baptizes North in Jerusalem
At an Armenian Orthodox Church.
He writes a song called "Black Skinhead"
With the Roman Numerals for 300.
Put these together, you have a man.

I say I do understand him...
It's why you cannot hate him.
In all this is a simple riddle
Wrapped up in a mystique
Wrapped up in behavior
That to most of us is a show;
As Kanye's brand is Christianity.
He does anything, it is a brand.
He suicides his brand---
He'll be rich again one day,
Build a new brand...
At least, we'll think realpolitik
Is just an arc in Kanye West's story;
His character arc,
In the Kanye West show.

I do understand him.
I'm probably the only one that does.

Only for him, my worst fears are a reality;
While for me, it is only an illusion like my Thirteen Kings.
