A Dash of Fake
much of your conversation
it is ill placed
out of context
and not relevant
it is often rude without apology
much of what you say
it is impolite
and even when it is not
it appears out of context
and it is quite obvious –
that socially you cannot cope
you have a dash of fake
but on close contact
the mask soon breaks
emotionally it is apparent –
that you have never really developed
much of your conversation
it is ill placed
