Socialization

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Socialization mirrors vanity Conversation hauteur Interaction deception Spoken word prevarication To indulge in ruinous gossip To feast on others’ misfortune To drunken oneself in shame Is to wallow in conversation To exhibit a jaundiced façade To camouflage one’s true colors To display a gaudily ornate masquerade Is to engage in superficial dialogue To display disdain and loftiness To self-seekingly draw attention To lift oneself up in prideful acclamations Is to be participant in social gathering Confabulation reflects conceit Discussion disdain Communication falsehood Socialization futilityI believe I was upset with a few friends when I wrote this. I am actually far from unsociable! Written November 21st, 2001 © on Nov 21 2001 06:36 AM PST   10 • 0 • 9
