Super Imposition

Society labels each soul

With its superimposition

Yet definitions they provide

Prove often in transition

It overlays identity

With scant relative values

Legitimizing its own mores

By the same ruler’s foul use

Such forces used to sculpt us

Then cast blame on their creation

Projecting their shortcomings

Onto us without relation

And so it’s wise to question

Our self-image and the mirror

And calibrate appraisal

To a conscience pure and clear
