Appearances can induce a trance
Creating an illusion of circumstance
Interpretation of information…
Is measured and weighed by inclination
The ordinary is often overlooked
Construed as blasé and mistook
Showy and entertaining invites attention…
As normality blends into a pale dimension
As the limelight dazzles… excitement grows
Over time glamour and glitz eventually slows
A faint chalk outline is all that remains
Rapidly to wash away with subsequent rain
What once was mesmerizing and wonderful
Has lost its luster and become dull
A glowing aura has faded since introduction
A facade melts away … revealing deception
