Deja-Vu

Not all here is as golden as it seems;

the spaces in between the words

is where you'll find the truth --

denial by reversal reads as pretty bold.

***

Just ask this aged Aquarian,

who learned to be skeptical

of the fantastical storytellers with

desperate egos to behold ---

***

My God may know my destiny

beyond the constellations,

if only I believed,

no further than I'm told ---

***

Sometimes, I like to gamble,

betting on my gut.

So play the hand that you were given,

or it's time for you to fold.

***

Fragments of a life figmented ---

do you believe in what you say?

Your lies are greasy-sweet sometimes,

but your story doesn't hold.

***

Thank you for taking the time to read my word-play, which most likely makes sense to no one but me! This one's pretty self-indulgent, but I like it anyway. So I thought you might, too. :)
