the projector

feel what s/he knows is

what is really happening,

uses the word “believe”

as if s/he needed it to

breathe,

throws out her/his labels

on others in a manner of

nonchalance, letting the

chips fall where they may &

running when the game

doesn’t turn out just like

s/he planned---

but

ooh, how the projector

feeds on success in

prediction,

for each time s/he’s right

about something or

someone, her/his ego

grows,

revealing the deepest of

insecurities

bubbling up from

within.
