painted corners

to speak
is to paint yourself into the corner
of a round room.

the colors don't match
my chameleon skin
i prefer to remain
anonymous and invisible
and afloat in a world of signifiers

but still i play the game
we all play the game

so
know me
but don't know me
don't get a handle on me
but hold me close
please
close as the next newest and best thing
in the world

at least till tomorrow
when i update
and fashion changes
these emperor's clothes
