REAL OR ON  DISPLAY?

I’ve walked by displays in shop windows

and mall stores - but when someone said he

sees so and so always as if he was on display,

I paused.  I found that hard to believe. Really….

Well, what about politicians and priests - aren’t

they looking for applause and accolades?

Aren’t they looking to be seen as sharp smart?

Really…. I still found that hard - hard to believe.

I rather be walking along in a forest or sitting in

the bleachers  - or be incognito - than be a

Styrofoam manikin on public display and 
nobody knows what’s really in my heart or mind.
