Lazily curling

For the cheap price
of "caution contents hot coffee"
you can be sealed
with authorisation.

Cheap validation
Clings to your personality
Climbing your shoulders
Cesspool whispering
in your willing ears.
Like, love, share, comment
swirling paper thin motivations,
skinny relationships
spirit wasting entropy,
praise from honeyed lips
echoing the cheap
price of life.

One word
is all it takes,
changing external
endorsement
to internal truth identity…

Jesus!

Prompt
Where does our identity come from? Who really sees us? Where do we seek approval from and how does it drive how we react with others?
