Quatrain of Seeing Thyself

Seeing Thyself - not easy

Honesty in general is not so hard
to find, but impossible
to be honest
with thyself
full-scale.

No matter how hard we try to be
real, we do not see what
others see when they
view every
detail.

We have learned how to spend
out lives fudging facts about
our looks or our weight,
even our
mind,

All of us believe we are far smarter,
far better in every way, than we
actually are, what we see no
one else can
find.
