The Obviated Self

Rising sun,the curtain raiser

With an expecting audience out

And the growing day,sets the stage

And I perform like the trained circus clown

The thinker in me locked in an inner cage.

Oh but they clap for me

And yes,they cheer my name

And here I perform with the perfectly curved smile

Play my part in this confusing little game.

And as the day passes by,

with dusk and darkness

The cage breaks free

And The silenced thinker

It Barges out defiantly.

With questions about the play

The cryptic lessons of the day

Reminder of all the lies

And all of the self wangled display.

And here I lie with no answers

Preparing myself for an "exciting" tomorrow

Again,to go out there,

Present myself to an expecting audience

Whilst the thinker me goes incognito.
