In There Waiting (+1)

Sociopath

Neuropath’s

Every ‘path’

an open route

locked inside

our minds

Empathy

Antipathy

Pathological

Waiting there

to mark the way

as circumstance

Pity More Apt

I’m tired of people

slinging hash

   and calling it Haute Cuisine

  The Emperor naked

behind the mirror

 where truth still reigns supreme

Waiting for accolades

 pity more apt

 so they again can void

Leaving their excrement

out on display

— only the rats to enjoy
