I’ll beggar no one
for flowing words of praise
or validation through effusive flattery,
or pretty poetic posies left passively
on my portfolio.
♦
Instead I’ll write,
my words carefully crafted
to mirror my motion-picture mind.
Perhaps you will be drawn to them
and will see my dreams.
♦
It matters not;
for this is your illusion,
not mine.
