Self Perception
Self Perception`
Our names are written
On the sands of time
Our presence and essence
But winds in the trees
Our hopes and pretensions
Mere idle intentions
Our purpose dependent
On fate’s fickle decrees
Our free will no more than fiction
Self perception but cruel deception
Our presence of no more consequence
Than leaves fluttering
...In the breeze...
