Drowning in a Sea of Arrogance

Dusty pink cellophane wraps me
I drown in waves of arrogance
Fishnet conflict, my dreams your sea
Rolling waves toward your influence.
Simpler words reach, and can’t suffice
What way to tell the untold truth
When tides are pulled in steeper price
Than simple words could ever soothe
Grief unfolds on shores that lure
To grains of sand that wear away
These hearty blocks til cleansed and pure
And grief moves on in softer way
But in your arrogance you see
This drowning fool of pink and plea
Transparent soul’s disparity
What is what was and what can’t be
Smile as if this were about you
While waves in thunder crash my shore
While knowing what couldn’t be more true
A simple grain, and nothing more.

Grains of truth?
"Fishnet conflict, my dreams your sea
Rolling waves toward your influence."
I like it, and have foundered in such a sea before.
