It Isn’t Just About Me
Sometimes I shop; just to feel I’m alive;
my purpose for living seems gone;
I live in the country, and have to drive;
since my life still must go on.
I watch TV re-runs; I’ve seen before;
to while the time away;
Know-It-All
Some seem to be extraordinarily wise;
knowing answers to every question;
within them; there’s little compromise;
they’re adverse to every suggestion.
Their answers come without hesitation;
most from another media;
each in search of praise and adulation;
a walking, talking encyclopedia.
Disdainfully, we dub them a “know-it-all”
…Reality Fading

I sense we share the same heart;
her love; held in disguise.
