Am I to show or Am I to read,

the painting of the sorts or placard

that’s what I hold, I’m at the juncture

of a mixture of emotions streaming

down along the spine, I’m bare

with no desire, maybe covering

myself with the mask of no clearness,

Am I to show or Am I to read,

I’m puzzled at my stance

and be mused at the comeuppance,

I Camouflaged myself with many avatars

Sometimes I try to shout in full voice

and at times I became an artist

picking the crayons to sketch on scrap paper,

Am I to show or Am I to read,

I’m at the juncture of a mixture of emotional streaming, unable to find out, what am I doing.
