Unredeemed

Are you hiding inside your writing,

making it impossible to see what you mean

Camouflaged words based on muddled intent,

to confound, confuse, or mislead

Is it cryptic or gibberish in nature,

your attempt to impress with your scheme

Are your words still unlived as you write them all down

—unpurposed and left unredeemed
