Empty Vessels

We prefer pseudonyms to reality
Relating to people by way of T.V.
Flashback to my favorite episode,
But no one else has seen it, so I guess I’m on my own.

Out of words, we just use someone else’s.
Vicarious love and hate till we’re senseless.
Think for ourselves has become so cliché.
Carbon-copies, unrealized potential-Empty vessels made of clay.
