Incongruence

[KathrynMartin]

In unremembered distances
When the first rumblings
Of a world below the belt
Crashed consciousness,
I said to the World
I am who I am

Yet the World said:
It’s not a world but you!

surrounded by so little
before I saw abyss in every direction
and that world, a part of World not me;

Truth told I, but body belied.

bravo! Your images resonate with me. BTW, I love your self description as a ligatrix!

Some nice language there. What's it about?

 

[KathrynMartin]

It speaks to the difference between perception and expectations of the individual and social environment we live in.
