RANDOM #94

“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.” Maya Angelou

reaching an open plateau
I looked back and think
options are compelling
but I’ve to disengage a link
there’s so much ambiguity
a forecast is not in synced
voices may resonate hope
but virtues are about to sink

there’s so much emphasis
on pride and exclusivity
the road to deliverance
requires an earthly royalty
a truth is often distorted
to an alarming degree
while the subjects rejoice
with every subtle flattery

trust is now a scarcity
in a fierce battle for control
of that imaginary space
where liars are on a roll
conspiracy spoils the mood
deceit forms a filthy hole
how can I freely act
if I rely on biased role
