Slices of Character

More intense than anyone you know
Emotions running ninety-foot deep
The slice you get of me will leave a mark
It's ironic that I could change you
I come in an edited down form
All you get of me is predetermined
A slice that says more about them than me
Run down and muted while they bask
Repeated attempts to prove me
Add weight to the judging scales
Throngs deploring a lack of morals
On show a tiny aspect never the whole
It makes me angry as the maddest pit bull
Knowing I'll never escape the page or screen
The lot of one that doesn't even exist
I never have and I never will
