Enigmas

Enigmas

no matter how many times
my motivations explained
the essence missed
or simply ignored

intentions assigned
expressions translated
erroneously
not mine

other’s agendas credited
as mine, though not
articulated in
my mind – at all

what, how
meanings missed
accidently
intentionally

no one listens
hear what they want to
what they’ve been
conditioned to

interpretation by
assumption

enigmatic
