Ulterior

Playing dead with earnest, lend to the sigh
Drowning in air with a propped up smile
Consigned to the enclosure of a formal life
To our thought all manner to deprive

Conceded to a selfish dream

The ceaseless senselessness of the lemming procession
Redoubled deception, extending outwards
In touch with the consensual avarice
Dolled eyes rejoice in illusions
