Dissimulate Poems | Examples


Interacting With Mark Twain

Are we true all the time?
    How could we be considered "good
    person", if we didn't hide the truth once and for all
    when....?
    "If the pain and sadness on the face were stamped",
    we would be ugly, horrible... there is the simulation,
    the pious lie, the polite, political language.
    The social rule of good manners therefore consists
   in not propagating how much good we think
   of ourselves, and how much evil we think
   from others...
   If we were completely honest, we couldn't
   live well socially.
   In this case, living well socially consists of,
   hypocritically dissimulate with all security
   and tranquility what we really think...
   We will thus be perfect for socializing, being
   imperfect... If we were pure, there would be no
   think so well of ourselves and so badly of others...
   We wouldn't have defects... but that can't be
   here and in this world....!

Brainwashing a Greenhorn In My College Den

I dubbed a first year my room mate
Upon arrival into our teacher training college
To baptize him. His pride in quick order I did decimate
Taking him at high celerity on a binge

Initiating him into traditional beer
In a nearby shanty compound
Where I got his head into God’s fear
Whereby upon returning the greenhorn couldn’t push anyone around

The special welcome made him the follower
I desired
Having diminished his self-concept and self-esteem lower  
Than he aspired but higher than he perspired

I proceeded to indoctrinate him into elocution parlance
As best as I could
Ensuring he possessed a college etiquette lance
That would

Not upstage Special
Whom he soon began to emulate
With artificial
Manners to dissimulate

The nascent confidence he feared might offend me
If he grew overconfident
More than I could agree
If he became less diffident

But he played the good boy
Obedient like a lapdog
Happy to enjoy a bone for a new toy
Like a contented warthog

When my training petered out
Satisfaction smiled
In my bosom without any shadow of doubt that my clout
Tamed the greenhorn who wouldn’t succeed in getting me riled.

Political correctness prevails
words dissemble & dissimulate,then
lose their meaning in semantic sounds.
Decadent hedonism,attired in faded
blue jeans,with fundamentalist fury
points its finger here,there everywhere
and for the past apologises yet…. fails,
Alice in Wonderland has
come to pass, but can never last.

SEQUENCE PHRASIS 1
Remember ,momento mori,always 
ever present in life,where,the rain
falls on both the good&bad.Words
so often dissimulate & dissemble,
alter the envisioned state of the
moment,& become convention.
Nostalgia slowly secretes into memory
bewilderment conceives a new
understanding on the shifting sands of
truth.Behind this mask of public persona
private passions glow,making visible the
invisible,to crystallize opinions.This illusive
holy grail,pictures in the mind,a well of
images,of dreams,visions and things not 
known all dissolve, as water through my hands
into a reservoir of the emotions.
From my Fibonacci Sequence 2005

HUMPTY DUMPTY LAND
Political correctness prevails
words dissemble & dissimulate
lose their meaning as the Mad
Hatter’s manor rules and reigns,
and Humpty Dumpty’s semantics sound.
Decadent hedonism,attired in faded
blue jeans,with fundamentalist fury
points its finger here,there everywhere
and for the past apologise yet…. fails,
forgetting  today can never be 
yesterday. Alice in Wonderland has
come to pass, but can never last.
