.^^^^^

we admire the outer "package "

Imitate some character from a tv sitcom

Unite with her in the game called

DRAMATIC FOLLY

pretend we are adults and ****



When the reality appears and we notice

We are really souls

We panic at the intensity

Of the truth

//

We call this panic

BREAKING UP

)(

We hide our shame by saying we are

BROKEN !

)(

We wonder

MAYBE WE SHOULD TRY TO BE REAL

BUT WE GET REALLY INTO  THE CRAZINESS

BECAUSE WE GET GOOD AT IT

And wake up 60 years later

Twisted by arthritis

In an old age home
