Let us converse cryptically, you and I,

observe and obfuscate obliquely,

speak in code - veil our words

in a multiplicity of meaning.

Let us build a wall of carefully constructed deceit,

embedded with myths, hopes, dreams and disillusionment -

with just enough cracks in it to reveal what lies behind.

No sex, drugs and/or Rock'n'Roll!

Oh dear, how sad,

how can one be good, if one has not been bad;

happy, if not sad; at peace if one has not been mad?

Fear not, this is but a phase,

lurking, lurking for an eloquent phrase.

Did I say "eloquent"? Surely not,

I mean elegant (diamond tiara and all).

What more can I say?

Hippopotamus?

The final act of despair is not death,

oit is to prevail regardless - clinging to

an absurd belief in the independent existence

of Truth, Justice, Beauty,

and the validity of humanity:

some call it optimism, others call it Faith.
