Everywhere I go, I find a poet has been there before me.
-Sigmund Freud
I’ve Learned to Hold My Tonque
I can hold my tongue
I can watch my back
I can do the right thing
I can see the illusion
What I wish I could do is
Not step into the illusion
It’s not real and I don’t want it
Especially if I must “play my part”
Of the villainess
There is confusion, frustration
And pain
When I get handed that role
When I hand out the scripts
I am always the heroine
The sweet do-gooder
Only-one normally doesn’t
Hand out their own scripts
Because it’s ever so much
Easier to stand in line
And take the part given you
It’s all an illusion
It’s a drama
We are all bit actors
On the stage of life
Maybe I’ll become a Buddhist
They have a well developed
Idea about illusion
I could take a foray to the
East and never be stuck in
Maya
