Detrotsid

Detrotsid

A Poem by Livi Mariotti
"

It's all twisted, is it?

"

It's distorted,

It's backwards, messed up, contorted.

It is an exhausting mind to own,

Spiraling and questioning.

Thinking about what thoughts even are.

I am losing touch with reality,

Or am I?

What is reality, and what shows that I would be losing touch with it?

What is my level of stability?

Now as I am unable to pull myself together,

The word itself is morphing

It is not the same anymore, is it?

Does a word represent something new after it has been distorted?

If my letters get misplaced, misspelled, misused, have I become a new word?

Have I changed?

What is my reflection reflecting?

It's distorted.

So beautiful! Well done girl! I love this. Really makes me think. I love the messy feel of it just like how thoughts and questions can get messy in your mind. And going from questioning reality to the final statement "It's distorted". Perfect! So meaningful. Love love love!
