Being Short On Truth We All Wear A Mask Poem by Mark Heathcote

For every day we swim across a river
Another is placed in front of another
Much - wider & deeper than the other
A trip is looking backwards stubs your toe.
Think isn't - so? Ask, what do 'I' know?
Shake apprehension away… let it go.
You, see the capability of a failed task
As part of your ego, this you must - let it go.
You see the capability of a fail task
Lies not knowing the right questions to ask
Being short on truth - we all wear a mask.
