Analysis of Arrows



I click and move along these idealistic arrows.
I slowly begin to realize these arrows are not mine.
Now as they turn more inwards.
I begin to understand.
These “ideas” have always been someone else’s arrow.
Always moving in a circle.
Never stopping to think.
Why was I doing this in the first place?
Now, when I click and move down these paths.
I realize.
I enjoy it now.
I love where I am taking myself.
