Perception That’s the flashlight you use to view the world with Hope A cover to brighten that light, but really just a myth Compassion It was right there in front of the vodka on the shelf Sympathy Only the vodka is left there for anyone or myself Depression Well I’m positive I can find some of that here Love That’s funny, let’s get the vodka so we can be clear Friendship That’s all over town they say it’s worth a pretty penny Trust If you want that with friendship it’s gonna cost you plenty Patience Did you come to buy or just window-shop at the store Time Ok that is enough, exit stage right, there is the door

I never shy, I lunge forward. The shelf, the self, very perceptive of you, maybe that's the self perception now reflected or projected, anyway thanks always for your insightful comments.
