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
