"Blood-Brain Barrier" taken on 35mm film with Olympus OM10 (2018).
You Roll Your Eyes
How is your problem
created by me
(in the empty mirror
you cannot see)
Might it be - simply:
You were offended
that I did not continue
where your hatred ended
Could it be – maybe
(this one is tough)
that I trigger a feeling:
«To not be enough»
Oh no – is it worse:
Do you actually need
to break others down
(is this how you feed)
Perhaps - this is better
(let us just hope):
You think I am carefree
while «poor you» can’t cope
The list could go on
and sadly - it will
(you might just be dumb)
- but there is hope still
You hurt me a little
(in an indirect way)
because: I see what you think
and it’s not what you say
*
You roll your eyes
I roll mine too
yours roll back
mine rolls through
