Unknown

How can you
              pretentiously
                assign yourself wise
              a little being knows
                from yourself...!?
               Poor man, still
               apprentice of himself ...
               So this stranger

pretentiously lame
                  altruistically tame
                    boringly aflame 
                  creativity a shame 
         dull tanka ends much the same

true feelings 
concealed craftily
beneath the sheath 
of saccharine psyche 

fragile fantasy 
of self sanguinity 
fostered
by colors 
of chameleon skin

spurious emotions
sprawl surreptitious
pretentiously 
paraded skillfully
away from 
edge of reason
epitomize deftly 
camouflaged ego

True feelings concealed craftily
beneath the saccharine sheathe,
toxic fantasy of self items fostered
by the colors of chameleon skin.

Sprawling spurious emotions,
pretentiously paraded skillfully,
away from the edge of reason,
epitomize the camouflaged ego.
