I feel like a chameleon color changing with my mood
A shape shifter that hides in a bright and vacant room
In a certain light you were so sure of what you saw
When dimly lit my colors they are not what you recall
I hide my true self from those who do not understand
Because I fear the hatred that afflicts my fellow man
I have survived this way for many years so far
Yet if I die in hiding no one would remember me at all.

What Happens To Your Brain When You Stop Multitasking
Digital technology is the culprit that is causing us to doom scroll when tired, disengaged and unmotivated with the content that motivated you to log onto your device to consume in the first place. That is only the beginning. In the modern workplace (and even when filing cabinets were around, I confirmed this with my adopted parents to get my facts right); reading files while you are supposed to be present to the caller on the other end of the phone line is another classic example of multitasking that causes your brain (although adaptable and intelligent) to lose focus and concentration.

I've Just Realized
The President doesn't understand music. There. It felt very good to write that; it's some thing I just realized today. Oh , yes; he plays it. He TRUMPets it in rallies and meetings, pumps it across the airwaves when he gathers up our minutes waiting for his late arrival.
