A Feathered Poem – Week 36-b

.

One of them

.

His mind is looking around
in search for feelings of fear
to project his uneasy trembles
on a situation or person:
“it’s here!”

He can’t stand up
for his own opinion,
so it’s either hiding for the truth
or another calming invention

So: “she criticises me”,
misreading is a convenient job,
“he looks down on me”
to put the other down and stay on top.

He colours the world so he can stay silent
look away from injustice
and thus makes the world more violent

He blames and complaints
responsibility is a concept unknown
he never looks inside
so he has no other home..
