They say 'are you okay?' But what they mean to ask is, Are you happy, Or at least faking enough, To be normal.  Are you adequate, Or at least silent enough, To be fine. Are you okay. Or at least tired enough, To be 'okay.'

The Act of Being Okay
They say 'are you okay?' But what they mean to ask is, Are you happy, Or at least faking enough, To be normal.  Are you adequate, Or at least silent enough, To be fine. Are you okay. Or at least tired enough, To be 'okay.'
