OR TREAT

OR TREAT

Cop at the door
maybe a whole army

pity I can’t just airbrush them
photoshop them out of existence

perhaps that would be easier
to turn myself into a creature
being so
      legally ambivalent
that I distort the light
refract the truth
that your eyes, or,
what
   is more to the point, their
eyes can see

tell them it is all
a matter of perspective,
interpretation, disinformation

that things will always
                               sneak
under the radar
eager
      to deceive

Cop at the door
perhaps a whole army

failing radical camouflage
let me plumb for
         Jedi mind trick.
