I was just looking at some of my work, and came across this poem that I wrote and decided to share it.
Mirror, Mirror
The mirror what you see is it what actually is or is it what you want or what we create it to be? The image of self we see is it real or just a figment of your own imagination. Can it be that you see yourself as you want to be? That your image of self is the inner image that you truly want to see, and that who you really want to be.
When you look in the mirror do you see what you want to see? Do you see what others want you to see or the inner you that is really ME? Not the little me that you know but the big me of who you really are, the ME that everyone does not see the sometimes ugly ME or should I say the beautiful ME when the world finds you physically unattractive the beauty that they never see because they never get to know that ME because they focus on the physical. So busy looking that they don’t even see the real ME.

Silence
Silence can be taken as a weakness but it can be one of the deadliest weapons in your arsenal. What you know and keep to yourself can often times be the best weapon of choice when time presents itself. ~S. Evelyn Jackson
There are many instances where your silence can be misconstrued and taken for something that it isn’t. Silence in many instances can be a resourceful weapon, and tool that can enable one to be observant, and take in all the information that one would need and build their resources and information. It can provide them with the tools that they can and will need at another appointed time that will in essence give them the upper hand and in some instances give them the weapons of their warfare assisting in their battle or the games we play in life. Life is a game of exchanges and interchanges that we interact with others in. Our choices to or not to interact is in fact a form of exchange, it is the exchange of non-exchange.
When you are silent it sends a non-verbal message to others and depending on their position they will conceptualize that communication to mean many different things depending on their perception and where they are in life will play a major role in this conceptualization. The information that you gain in this time period is some of the most resourceful that you can ever attain. How it is used can determine your level of success in using it, and applying the information you have gained. There are instances that people misread and misunderstand the reason for the silence and in their ignorance make false judgments. This is how and where the silence is a deadly weapon in your arsenal. When people make false assumptions they don't know the cards you are holding and the wealth of resources backing and behind you. They are only aware of what they initially see, and what you have given them. Nothing, with your silence all they have is the non-verbal communications you have provided through the demeanor, and body language.
Yet, they still assume unaware that you are gaining intel, that is the best way to describe it, on how you will actively engage in the exchange and interchange with them and others. In the end, there are Rules of Engagement, and if you don't know the rules you will fail miserably. When you know and/or understand these rules it helps you and gives you some of the tools, resources, and weapons you need in your arsenal to be successful. Know who you exchange, and interchange with in the game of life and always think about how you will exchange and interchange with them in the game or your experience will be forced exchanges and interchanges not of your liking.
