misconceptions

By Moonflower

Cold
and Apathetic

maybe...

this is his perception
of our world.

a twisted mutant of
what used to be so
beautiful...

it stands in an awkward
stance..
ready for action..

or maybe its just there
to remind us of
our selves.

  • A former member wrote: an interesting turnaround in the impression of who we are what we leave behind.. this presents many ideas in just a few words, philosophically divine..

    Staggering.. I like the thought of the twisted mutant not being personified, how the face stays the same; same smile, same laugh, but the inside is what has deviated. And still with the same physical features, we can all see the difference. Neat!

    can't help but to re-read with a wondering of who the "his" applies to. divine, or mortal?
