Trend

I suppose if you had to find a trend 
there would be mandatory hums & 
hah’s consequentially camouflaged 
as ends one must contemplate – a
bit farcical as no-one really sees a 
thing whatever in the connection; 
but be that as it may you’ve to be 
noted playing the right moves 

So when we say – ‘no-one’s in the 
slightest bit interested, you don’t 
have to play a role of being eager, 
visibly caring or keen to make the 
right impression – just clear your 
throat enthusiastically’; so 

You didn’t need to glower as if we 
had belittled you; you actually did 
it all on your own with subterfuge 
too barefaced for Oscar winning 
accolades and a naïve disinterest 
exposing who you really are
