Perception (unconventionally)

By PoloN14


Perceive yourself as a tarnished item of silver.
The silver; your innersoul-- untainted.
The tarnish; society's various inflictions--
imposed upon your essence.
Now comes life's goal; secreting a polishing agent.
A mixture of compassion and experience
to eat away the grime and let your soul shine 
brightly.
