There’s nothing light about
breaching the borders,
it is chaotic, destructive and
dark,
it’s seeing the cruelty hidden
behind artful facades,
feeling naked malice, intent and betrayal,
it means facing your beliefs, your
fears, your deepest memories,
staring them in the face until
you can see past their proximity,
giving you the courage to free
yourself, lift yourself beyond
the grasp of the makers of this
make-believe called ‘life’.
I think I'll stay on this side of the border.

ReplyDeleteG'day sweet Ms. V!!!
ReplyDeletelife = make believe, I like that.
My favorite today is your reference to "cruelty hidden behind artful facades", Yes, indeed. That says it all,
Hope you're doing well dear one.
Art is usually the reflection of a person's thoughts and beliefs. For many others though, art is a medium to express a person's fantasies or a make belief world with things that he/she would otherwise not relate to. Hence, it is possible for people with seemingly similar preferences/tastes in art to have extremely different perspectives and beliefs.
ReplyDeleteLoved reading. You're really good at expressing your thoughts in rhyme and measure :)
