6 - Common, Poor

The successful and authentic

are the exception

to the common rule.

The mass of men

all hide the battlescars

of their poor

coping mechanisms

to have pure connections

with others.

Or, how to balance

their passion and discipline.

But when the show provides us

free appetizers,

we judge those who fail

at being

whatever it means

to be this

'good human being'.

And when I see this,

how people shut themselves

up

in their expressionistic

houses,

away from their own mirrors,

I want to become the Hamlet

which provokes the whole of Denmark,

and irritates the citizens

who think they are free or safe

from their own flaws.

Those things

they cannot truly escape.
