We varnish

So we vanish

Beneath layers of persona

Which obscure our true identity

And show it not.

I question

Who are you?

Hidden by your onion wrapped

And lacquered cover.

Why do you quiver when I inquire?

Your fears are groundless.

  3. I will ask

    In return

    Who are you?

    If who you are satisfies

    The eyes in which you behold beauty

    The light I hold

    Shall become beautiful to me

  4. An excellent metaphor "lacquered cover." It works well for the virtual world, as well.  

  5. I like it.  a lot.

    One question, observation if you will, opening the second line with "So"?  I see where you are heading, just wondering if "Thus" or "Then" would work as well in your mind.  Reasoning;  it was the only stumble I had with the poem.
