I took off my blinders today.
I saw around myself
The life I neglected
In my tunnel vision,
The inauthenticity
Of my behavior.
I saw the box I so happily
Dwelled in and
Make-believed that I was
Doing something
Important.
I saw my hypocrisy in
Looking at others
And make-believing
I was made of
Something different.
Maybe I can be, now.

Because despite my acknowledgement of personal faults, I also have a bit of an ego.
