Surface beauty
on a shaded soul
pseudo-verve
takes it's due
and patching cracks
with rusty tools
fools few

 

Inner anguish
on an upturned face
pseudo-smiles
fool some
and catchy phrases
with quick exits
allows time to run

 

Absolute defeat
on a bowed head
pseudo-life
is all but gone
and nothing is left
within but just
the fooled one
