Our Blindness
Our faults shimmer before the public
Like lies in the eyes of teens
But our good hibernate from others
Advertising our wrongs and sins
Friends and trust are what blaze our hearts
To hurt us ere our sights spot
And it takes us long to hang lens
To audit what's dense to float
We hardly contend our lacks
That lay fresh and young to cure themselves
And our needs emigrate the earth
After the betrial from what we thought helps
