To the less discerning eye, we are gold
glittering its distraction, scars hidden behind
angles and misdirection
Empty souls on parade
vying for attention
When will we learn
our flaws are what make us different
our flaws are what make us the same
all we are, and all we're not
*Let them shine
Inspired by
Daniel Allinson's "Shame of the Selfie" &
an old saying my grandmother used to tell me
"Everything that glitters isn't gold"
