Not

Perhaps it's a bit of perspective, or maybe a snippet of insight? Who knows, I certainly don't. Think not, dwell not!

Think not, for they dwell within.

Look not, for they shadow your movements.

A mirror will tell no tale,

a camera cannot capture the truth,

and their gossip: they know nothing!

It is you, it is you.

The reflection not quite true;

the picture, it is skewed

and the story - lost again.

Feel not, for you are conflicted.

Trust not, for the world is deceiving.

The news will be selective,

people cannot be trusted,

and you are still uncertain.

Read not, think not, dwell not!

Oh i absolutely love it. Theres something so remarkably mysterious about this poem. The tone has just the right amount of everything. And i couldnt agree more with the message it holds.
Written very well :)
