you are not what you think
your thoughts sometimes you are not what you think sometimes others thoughts got stuck there like a fish bone in the throat like a glob of discarded hair stuck in the drain of your mind clogged you are with other thoughts and the thoughts of others you are not what you think on your own worst day of thoughts or even on your best of best days are you somewhere in between and which words belong in your quotations your dialog you are not what you think maybe you deserve better than your own too-often harsh assessments those assessments being those of others too that is what others do make their minds up for you when they shouldn't where they have no business but still intrude when your Mother when your Father when one of you finicky fickle peers made a sentence and spit it out and it spilled all over you you are not their words and their words are not your thoughts and you are free now i release you to think differently if you should chose to chose this is the good news you my dear dear are not what you think you are what you live you are what you do and you are how you treat others who would place their thoughts like a table cloth all over you curious isn't it this paradigm this puzzle of circumstances too you are not what you think you have the right to choose don't you?
