My name is Mr. Nobody, and where I live no one notices me. Except for my reflection, and through swirling chaos, my mirror taught me, to mask my insides, lights behind my eyes with an outside that's also me, just a bit more brittle. My shell that I wear doesn't like think or care about people's little problems while skinny starve-people sit in the sand while I hear bubble-people speak. The innocence in them concealed as a person, hasn't been pricked by the planet's harsh criticisms, and the people they haven't grown up to be yet are trapped in fast tracked single mindedness, without seeing life's puzzle. I dance my way through a lost portrait of chaos, have you ever thought of the forbidden garden of eden? Was it a fruit perched in a garden? Or the earth that I walk on. Do people think about stillness before biting from the perfect enclosed system that beauty and trees were frame formed out of? Gaia kissed me then spoke I blended into her perfect portrait, no more important than a droplet of water. Insignificance is inherent to life and I hate when people think themselves taller than forests or think deeper than creatures living at the bottom of the ocean. My mirror sits frozen behind each of my eyelids, so each time I blink I transport to tranquility, only to open my eyes and find spaces full of bubble-people who have not yet learned to blink, world shrink perceived as the seven seas world breezes and knowledge that is fake and brittle. and My name is Mr. Nobody and where I live no one notices me except for my reflection.

It is so easy to be invisible these days...
