No Captions

Captions are too simplistic and doesn't always explain your true self.

I.

No captions capture me.

No pictures,

no words

can reveal the person you see.

II.

For better or worse

Good or bad.

I'm more than a page in a book.

Or 'zine.

III.

I can't be captured

in so brief a shot.

I can't be judged

on simple thoughts.

IV.

Venture forth to read in me.

I do leave myself open

to a certain degree.

Maybe you'll find more

But not all of me.
