I live my life in a fishbowl
looking out at a world
that doesn’t bother
looking back at me.
My only privacy
is your indifference
This painting, “The Sea Inside” by Samy Charnine, was the writing prompt at The Sunday Muse. It’s already Monday, but you can still click on the link and check it out.
I know exactly how that feels. This is a perfect reflection of the image and the times. It is always wonderful to have you join us at the Muse Mary!

aww thank you Mary. I rarely use my Word Press site. It is soooo confusing to me compared to blogger.

I see the indifference in the eyes of the fish … privacy in this case is to be desired? A clever response to the art.

Ouch…that last line hits hard. I can’t imagine living in a fishbowl where I am constantly scrutinized.

I used the personal pronoun, but see it on a societal level.
