No Tooting

It’s an honour
The stratosphere invites
to share its secrets
-I’m the chosen one.

I enjoy the peak
Pity lesser beings;
-then
expectations tug at the base
I need to act a certain way

Devil’s Horns penetrate the psyche
I’m not myself any more

One thought on “No Tooting

  1. Great piece Reena – creating the self-image of being ‘chosen,’ results in being trapped by both pride and expectations, until eventually it is all consuming 🙌
