Self Perception

Self Perception

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)
"

Just random thoughts

"

Self Perception`


Our names are written

On the sands of time


Our presence and essence

But winds in the trees


Our hopes and pretensions

Mere idle intentions


Our purpose dependent

On fate’s fickle decrees


Our free will no more than fiction

Self perception but cruel deception


Our presence of no more consequence

Than leaves fluttering


...In the breeze...
