Getting Lifted

Fraught with excess
So rich in self neglect
Living inside
Our hollow victories
Under duress
A fault you feel and accept
A photo beside
Electronic text

By sight
We pry
By light
We rise

For every sentence
Getting lifted
For every penance
Getting lifted

Partial defences
Full fledged atrocities
We read the threads
And post mythology

Fraught with excess
So rich in self neglect
Dying inside
Our hollow victories
We scrutinize
Your deepest sympathy
Hoping to find
Some shallow strategy

Under-rated
Getting lifted
Overstated
Getting lifted

All the gifted
Getting lifted

Over reactions
Incompatibility
Our lowest levels
Our divided loyalties
