loose screw reality
I blow fear smoke rings
inside darkness grief
the killer waits patiently knife in hand
I travel by the daylight
of your social media acrobatics
gossipy hens cluck at night
they are high on viciousness
I stay out of their arena
the truth was found in your book of lies
I turned and saw I was naked in front of you
shame flushed my face
to be so transparent
when I thought I was a skilled sorcerous
the hunter wanted my thoughts
he scoured my bible
to find clues of reality
when it was always plain
a paint by numbers set so easy
I'm here in plain sight
come get me
Author's Note
feeling naked today in the light of social media like DU...it can both liberate your soul and also at times leave you feeling exposed...

Crimmy,
You're such a great word artist! I love this stanza:
"the hunter wanted my thoughts
he scoured my bible
to find clues of reality
when it was always plain
a paint by numbers set so easy"
Brilliant!
I tell you, Kiddo, if I could write like you, I would never be worried!
You're awesome, Crimmy!
Love,
Matthew.
Note: Sometimes I feel naked, too, but mostly in the shower area.

Every word shared opens the windows into our existence slightly wider. The hazards of penning thoughts and emotions for others to read. We are all vulnerable here. I love you, my beautiful Dark Angel
...ever your Willow

thank you beautiful Willow yes we are all of us a little vulnerable in our sharing...I made myself known to someone in life... this stems from fear of letting people know too much about me...
I love you...
love Brenda 💕
I love you...

Even letting go of the need to let go, allowing what is to be as it is, no alternative expectations, no exceptions to the rule, no taboos of thought, no guarded moments, no defenses, no ulterior motives, no dogmatic subroutines, no self-righteous needs to be right, no otherness, no deductive fossilization, only an inductive sense of unfolding to the unconditional, which means things are not merely a set future. This means "identity attacks," like shame and disgust, are temporary at worst.
Passing through these many language layers, mapping out our own consciousness, we turn an face oblivion, given that a final analysis equates us all ultimately.
It's not ego then to claim your own worthiness.

thank you dearest RT I will... yes it is daunting to completely put yourself out there and on a daily basis embrace whatever is on the conscious to bear and then like you say turn and face oblivion... yes, in the end, it is worth it...
I deeply appreciate your insight into this write...

A truly brave poem, Brenda. Those who commented above speak of vulnerability. You overcome the fear, and write like the sorcerous you are. I am in awe of you.
