Useless Answers

How come you overlook such witty answers? Those smashers, always hitting up too late! They fluff the air with dust, like ballet dancers Whirl down, like feathers in ethereal debate Watch them in rapid whoosh, like flock of swifts Triumphal answers, doing mortal pirouette! Next second they are cloud, that slowly shifts Before your eyes, like smoke of cigarette They seek attention, poor useless answers Profound depth and eloquence they bring But time is over for the crucial nuances Blankly they melt, like piles of snow in spring.
