No one is real. Everyone is a spokesman for someone, or something, else;
Everyone is a puppet for a hidden agenda. A willing, or an unwilling, dupe.
And the landscape of secret competition is so complex, willing and
Unwilling are the same. Seeking security and pleasure is simple,
Right? Absolutely not. All we know are thoughts inside of thoughts.
Everyone is confused absolutely and a puppet absolutely.
Love requires trust, but anyone who trusts a puppet is a fool.
I must include myself in this charade, and ask you not to believe
Anything I say. What can I say in favor of this or that? What do I know?
I am being used. By what or whom, and for what purpose, I’m not certain.
I could represent a large enterprise, changing from within,
And my resistance to change could be, in an odd twist, in favor of it,
Or my actions could be secretly against it, or, a preparation
For something entirely new, separate and different, which will benefit
Those people over there, or maybe I’m an agent for an operation to soften
And confuse, planting seeds for the next unforeseen uprising and change.
I don’t know what my feelings and thoughts are for, or what they indicate.
I don’t trust you. I don’t know what to tell you. What the hell? This poem is over.
