What's Up?

Strange faces facing stranger...faces once familiar, once borrowed time from the wholesaler....with the retailer.... shared time and places similar....attention meaning superior, where is that space today?...emoticon nowadays?...expressions moved on, where is that face today?....concoction nowadays?...eyes carried on, where is thy time today?...went without me to conquer.... another face...another laughter, where are thy tears today?..vent thy intelligence to rapture...another mind..another fracture, faces still try...smirk at a glimpse of thy....faces deny...allegations defy boredom to clarify, naught but a stage...actions reply...obsolete vividness and fake wides, ageless pretense through ages...a question why?....a resolute stillness in the tides, faces frown....linger and ignore...stealing glances...when caught they alight, buy pretty laws to nazify....ugly truth to pacify, preach fascism to decline...attempts to gratify....cause thy voice to recline, thy must fishify...feel nothing..sleep with open eyes...let them mummify, ignoble faces surprise...bring thy amusement and rile, faces still manage to arise when crossed....made to “cover up”, well versed with a jargon “what's up?”.
