smashed mirrors
can’t be fooled,
but easily fooled
there’s no fool like
a self-fooled delusion
lies, lies, lies to myself,
but say them louder,
be convinced
wrap the falsehoods
around my head –
a hat of deception,
I wear it so well

This piece was quite sporadic and almost unintelligible save the last stanza but, I think because of that, I really enjoyed it.
Conundrum(Can a hat be deceptively deceptive?).
Keep it up.

It kinda makes sense to me. Not one to let another pull the wool over ones eyes, but how easily we can fool ourselves, self delusion.
One looks at a triangle yet by the time it filters through the eye and into the brain, it rebuilds as square, so one believes they are looking at a square.
I look in the mirror and most of the time, loathe what I see.
A thought provoking piece Atatki, I like to make my mind work. Nicely done. :)
