There are no many projections
like society’s perception on me
and it is not all words that can easily be ignored
because it goes on levels that I couldn’t easily see.
I bet it is the same for everyone
but who is shedding off those perceptions?
Who is still living in ‘Deception’?
Well, it is a ‘deception’ to me...an illusion
because living not as oneself
but as what others want for ‘the self’
even though it is good,
It isn’t exactly...true.

I highly appreciate it! Would love to read more of yours
its that balancing thread - of fate
how much of our choice
is happenstance, disguised as wilful ignorance
and how much of our mirror, do we fill
with stylistically hot, empty air?
when we sign our name, do we lilt
each letter the same, purposely
or do we react - erratically, when a squiggle
is out of place, from that order
we yearn - needlessly, devotedly
knowing, who - we are
asking
If, we ever - were: morbidly...
(thanks for inspiring my little scribbled reply
I'm always drawn to the unwavering honesty
of your poetic ink)
thanks for sharing
