Tobi: Flashing Lights

The limelight is on me
so
why do
the lights
blind 
me

Their rays scorch me
and
why do
the words of praise
feel-feel 
like
bars of iron
closing fast
around
me

And
the
flashing lights
shoot
arrows 
into
my skin

Welcoming hands-
crush 
me
choke me
change
me

  1. I get smart, from these feelings Portrayed;

    smiles come from right, left, up, down and center

    Understanding deceitful smiles makes me always feel Betrayed

    1. If only there was no deception, no deceitful people... would there be you and I, here, now?
      Nice piece, Seun!
