Undaunted now
and drawing down
his worldly shroud,
the personality kept
on a hanger
by the door.
He is once again
suitably cloaked
and walks again
among us
today.

That's a scary [eive of work. I'll be forever lookking over my shoulder and won't be haning arouund any door hangers anymore....
Scarey eh? But actually it need not be read that way, it's tease to see the reaction.
Sounds like my spiderdan outfit!
Be careful spinning yer web off those pier supports.... the tide's coming in.
HE'S BEHIND YOU!!
Yep, pure pantomime. Is it evil or is it something we all do? The answer is within each readers mind.
this is a great write DA and one of those with multiple interpretations I suspect...... N
Exactly right Neville and with your background it's no surprise to me that you see it this way. it's that glass half full/empty scenario again.... is it evil or everyday? Thanks for your perceptive read and comment.
Yes we all have a hanger on which we put personal traits we wish to be seen - - a haunting reminder of need to become whole and unafraid to show all therefore........ thanks for this post today D.A.
I think we all have a reticence to reveal certain areas of our personality, though we may strive for openness. Trouble is not everyone can comfortably handle us a we are so .... quandary.
I know i hide bits of me to appear 'acceptable' (not that i am inherently evil).
Motivation behind this is to give each reader the choice.... do they see something evil or something we all do automatically. But your response pleasantly chops the motivation in half.
Beware the shoulder that gets tapped
Could be very scarey or maybe he just wants change for a parking meter. The shroud/ cloak is something we all wear i believe. Thanks Suresh, always appreciate your comment.
