Question: What say you to this acrostic!?
What is Your Truth!?

Looking
Into mirror seeing
Eerily
Strange reflections

Walls perfectly
Erected to protect and deceive

Believing we have bought
Everything
Life pretends to be
Insidious truths
Erupting, destroying, offering a
Vile, harsh
Ending to our comfort zone!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The contrasts in your poem are true poetic expression!. Walls, which are meant to protect deceive at the same time!. Truths are 'insidious!.' They destroy and erupt like volcanoes!. Life itself is a pretender You have done well in this poem!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is a profound and personal poem that I relate to especially well!. Those "insidious truths" deconstruct the walls I build so well, and I am left with only reality in the mirror!. This is most certainly out of my comfort zone!.Your words are harsh but heavy with truth!. You have a gift for presenting undeniable truths in your poems!. Thank you!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

This reads so smoothly and is so succinct!. My favorite lines: "Walls perfectly
Erected to protect and deceive",
"Believing we have bought
Everything"

And the end was almost effortless!. Thanks for sharing!.
