o25

who can guess at
the fecund pleasantries
rising in word bubbles
with every backward step
into oblivion

living on the praise
passing under the footstep
of subtle belief
in a system with
obsequious goals

there is a truth
in what every one of us believes,
at least in the drying
tear ducts of strangers,
girls transmitting fashion
