The greatness of me

Business suit,
crisp, intact,
I unfold my
wand
when no one
is
looking.

I tell it,
"get
a spell on!
transfix all eyes!
onto the,
greatness,
of me".

Nothing
changes.
I'm a stranger,
wild,
in a cage.
Poses slay me.
Poverty suffocates.

I like the way this poem is structured.
It also reminds me of periods of my childhood where I'd command to myself myself "fly!", and I'd crash down instead.
