Life Is Like


Clash of the titans playing in my head
Dramatic unfurling of all my little details before me
Open for examination by all who surround me
I cross the fields naked and exposed
My demons laid bare for those who wish to see
Or criticize and cast judgment on my shadows
Choices made not all by choice
I walk the path life throws me with unruly
Zest perhaps mistaken and misplaced
For sorrow which I do feel yet it's tempered
With a feeling of acceptance for what is and
What has to be
Cascading whirlwinds of experience
Simplified by erratic complications
Dramatic personifications of the masks I wear
Transparent and murky all at once
