Thin Veils of Pretence
Pretence at sacrifice concealed in a translucent veil as inverted altruism soon comes unstuck as its perfidy wears thinner and thinner to engender amazement, bewilderment, embarrassment and bemusement.
Shunt aside gifts to the
ego you flatter day and
night to blight your own life.
