Misdirection
The smoke and the mirrors
hide the reflection
blurring our vision
until we gaslight ourselves
a hideous game
of persecution and blame
meant to cover truth
creating human targets
to hide fault and failing
we buy the misdirection
we follow it to its bitter end
out-shouting he who yells most
seeking to drown out
he who shouts loudest
never once solving anything
never seeking better days – Caroline A. Slee
