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.
