Museum Of Masked Faces - First Draft


On synthetic derelict stage of deception domain,
I gyrate the split mind, ensnared by bipolarity chain.
Under illusive limelight of ostentatious time, 
I’m entangled in machinated invasive paradox prime.
In make-belief life’s drama I act with no compunction, 
I face fabricated faces flocking redundant in conjunction. 
Identity lost in conglomerate of counterfeit facades,
I don’t perform by heart's prudent prompt if it pervades.
In masquerading faces reflected in warped mirror, 
I see concealed the contorted contours of rancid rancor. 
With their phony pretense a conciliation role I tactfully play,
my misshapen face of spite, the actor in me doesn't portray. 
Finding a fake place to subsist in pretend archival spaces, 
I’m a configured antique in the museum of masked faces.
