you ask for my considered opinion
then denigrate my reply
defensive in the face honesty
you flee and feign offense
you flee and feign offense
squeamish confronted with compliments
you self-deprecate
from all of this you are convinced i’m trapped
within your gaslit ruse
but you’ve built the walls so high i’m left outside
and have yet to enter
a carnival keep of contradictions
the edifice of youth
