Hearts fooled, fouled, full
Arteries throb, clogged with shadows

With truth, no room for the other
Who is demanding
Who is begging
The self, cut in two

The self can see
No more truth
Clogged with shadows
Mirror shards

The good life
All needing now
Gorging on each other
Becoming the other

Poverty, the bifurcation of self
A well heart wealth
