Breathing Life

The messaging demands perfection
with ever-moving goalposts
the most fleet of foot
are caught out and left behind
images move away from truth
creating the unreality that pins us down
a plastic world declaring beauty
as a standard enforced upon us all
muting the choices we make
in favor of silent spaces and hidden treasures
a message demanding we hide our faces
deny the authentic
and remain as the ghostly invisible – Caroline A. Slee
