Me me me

“Me me me” my vocals warm up

I take to my stage head held high

My audience is there to adore me

I am all that matters

My performance replaces truth

Superficial and materialistic

Don’t question me

Accept what I present

Fragile in my spotlight

I need you to play along

I am the star of my fantastical reality

And you are my adoring fans.

I am currently reading ‘The Life of I’ by Anne Manne.

If you are wondering about how the world became so narcissistic,  Anne Manne explains it.  Capitalism and  devaluation of care play a role.  It is a disturbing, insightful and necessary read.
