Imposter
Lies. All lies You are lying But do you also realise u are lying to urself Who have you become Where have you gone And look how you are right now You hang out with liars who normalise lying They lie day in and day out, Defending themselves that they just lie lesser And you, of them all, are the worst Well, you have...

Imposter
What if I'm wrong? One of these broken messes Always a ghost in the corner The fractures never healed What if these jagged edges are just hiding behind the gold inlay? What if the ash Of what I never was Comes back to stain our brilliant life? What if I'm not violence contained, What if my bars are...

We see ourselves unimpeded initially Some are stricken with a view artificially We are told by others very specifically There is a ceiling so proceed timidly We try in vain with no support futilely As we age blazing the path dizzily Sometimes we see the results dismally Eventually we learn to climb skillfully We began to achieve sufficiently Eventually finding...

Inside a Two-Way Mirror
sometimes I feel like a two way mirror, people look at me and I look at them, with that hint of recognition, do I know you, my friend? And they'll say, "I've known you my whole life" the truth concise, and said so nice, it almost made me want to believe, and so we go on playing pretend, that friends we are and...

Imposter Syndrome
I sometimes try but obviously am bound to more often than not fail To hide behind my cocoon spun silken webb of lie's For fear of otherwise being exposed that I doth not possess any or little or no intrigue or mystery at all Besides what you see cowering dastardly in front of you here before you now So mistakenly I take a bow forgetting rather...

The Imposter
She presented all goodness and kind Reveled in the ridiculous and sublime. A sanguine disposition, purification of light And ever so softly with a smile of delight, She would step on you gently with all of her might……...

His mind is dark, like a night sky without stars. Doubt sits upon his shoulders, poking at his face, irritating his mind, interrupting his thoughts, outrunning his words - laughing at him hysterically. Demons slay his self belief, echoing like mountainous valleys. Playing with his insecurities. Manic voices vibrate in a percussion of shrieking, like jesters juggling with his sanity. Sweaty palms and heavy feet, leave his tongue...

Bio Modified - Conceited Imposter
BIO MODIFIED – CONCEITED IMPOSTER Conceited A poet a playwright, an actor and dreamer. I love my reflection, a challenge, applause. I’ve thought of a screenplay, a sit-com and novel. I feel I am perfect, a genius, appealing. I fear I’ll be wrong on all three of those feelings. I’d like to write music, to sing and to dance. A resident of dreamland,...
