ashamed of us
fiction
edward w pritchard
You who once were truly beautiful inside and out come with familiarity to be the object of someone's shame. Your crime being only speaking and acting your mind, the truth as you experience it and for expediency's sake trudging on for children, King and Country, or reality as perceived by you alone.
Beautiful people. When we first speak our point of view we come to be criticized and when we act our convictions we become someone's object of shame, not always in secret abeyance.
Continue your journey, finish your quest. Alone in a crowd too busy to compromise and too full of life to work at fitting in to values that no longer work.
What a bore is a secret condemnation unread by any court and spoken only in bursts of white anger.
Bourgeoisie values
