The Principle of Sameness

Neville

The Principle of Sameness

 

somewhere behind the camouflage they hide

beneath their disguises

not quite invisible, but not full on, or in your

face either, they are far

more discreet than that these days and tend

   to whisper rather than shout ..

   yet still they are heard and noticed and feared ..

and while it may not feel like

another groundhog day to you, it is the same

  old same old, to yours truly ..

        They are always there but unseen. A lovely write that gives me deja vu feels.
