Wisepicks For 5 January

Usha Nandini
 

Trust your instincts,ย 
they usually show youย 
what’s behind the sceneย 

 

Helen Quinlivan

 

If the alarm bells ring,ย 
be aware,
the narcissistโ€™s grin is a maskย 
heโ€™ll wear in public,ย 
to cover an evil smirk,
and trap you foreverย 
in his mentallyย 
deluded framework.

 

Deborah Poff

 

Sometimes we are taken byย 
the generous smiles on the outsideย 
only to find the caustic truthย 
behind the mask
listen to your intuition

 

Kris White

 

Don’t always take thingsย 
at face value.

 

Anjana Surendran

 

Once, twice, thriceย 
and many more yet to come
pretensions and disguiseย 
set a bait of treachery for meย 
and now let me think and pursue

 

Jeanie Elizabeth

 

Hiding behind theย 
veil of pretense.

 

Sarrveshwaran

 

The sugar-coated smileย 
will wear off one dayย 
and the anger-coated faceย 
will show itself that day.

 

Rinku Shah

 

Hiding any emotion,
Causes confusion.
Express what you feel
The freedom you feelย 
is a big a deal!ย ย 

 

Shilpika Bagh

 

A “deceptive face”ย 
out there to impersonate;ย 
a “mindful vision”ย 
can save life imprisonment

 

Jodie Morrison

 

Always trust your first impression.ย 
What you see on the outsideย 
may not be what is on the inside.

 

Sarrveshwaran

 

The face you projectย 
is too good to be true.ย 
There’s something else behind,
ย I get the clue.
