Pretense

       
what makes me do this?        
         
I wont tell you      
what "this" is....        
         
imagine....        
let your mind wander....        
thats your perrogative.....        
         
but lets face it,        
         
any notion          
that one human`s exterior transmissions,        
         
(no matter how earnest the intention        
of another`s to internalize them)        
         
can trigger even semi-appropriate          
external empathetic response,        
is patently delusional,          
cult-of-self          
pompous ignorance.....        
         
my innermost circles        
might hazard guesses.....        
their accuracies        
matter not        
         
my situation mirrors a reflection to theirs,        
to yours,        
as uncomprehensible        
and alien          
as all your messes appear to me....        
         
it`s something you,        
ANY other,        
could never truly feel        
no matter how many words        
we drivel        
in attempts to reveal        
         
and believe me....        
I absolutely do not        
want to get into detail        
         
if I tried,        
it would be less than real        
an ordeal        
just to read,          
let alone sense
beyond vague mis-conception
upon uneven keel....        
         
some may interpret        
my verbose          
faux-indoctrinational soliloquy        
as attempt to disguise,          
conceal....        
......even tittilatingly pique!        
         
but interest aint something        
I actively seek        
         
what I really need        
is to understand        
bone-deep............        
         
what makes me do this?
