Mantras, Motivations, Pillows, And Plaques

 "Trust yourself"

"Deep down you know who you are"

"You know what you want"

Cliche after cliche

Motivational posters, throw pillows, and plaques

all espouse self-knowledge

"Remove the world's bullshit and you will find who you are"

"Who you were meant to be"

What if everything that's you
who you are
is who leads you astray

What if
deep down
you are a broken compass
that points everywhere
but north
