The Ruse

Jeannie

Preconceived notions

filled with doubt, burn

through the mind like

a wild fire out of

control.

 

Distinguishing between

truth and lies.  Deceit

conquers and lingers,

As does the vulture

waiting on death.

 

False hopes and dreams

crippled by narcissistic

ways.  A drama queen

watching her audiences

reaction.

 

Believe not.

Watch the act

no more.

ignore it, just

walk away.

  • Myth

    It is the dodgy theater of life ..
    Some impersonate deception ..
    Some impersonate truth...
    Whatever your role is ..
    Don't take it seriously

    • Jeannie

      Well said.
