Many Faces

There, in the nub of it, you’d think you see the 

cue for change, only a tint of it; but okay if this

read is precursor to what’ll be viewed certainly 

an invitation to estrangement - maybe without 

being askance we’ll woo deference; hint, isn’t 

there incongruity after changing to leave your 

clothes tangled the way they fell off you - but  

just say if it’s how you’d want ‘em laundered 

Only we sodding-well-know it’ll be invitation to 

batting on bad manners, a lack of live-and-let-

live chivalry and sarcastically intractable slap 

to egocentric views; so a why don’t you shut  

up and do it my way analogy won’t get aired - 

or even off the ground - or yet laundered 

But all things considered, there’s fun thinking 

it through to a foregone conclusion - you’ll do 

it right and proper anyway as the fallout is far 

taller than any tower of Babel’s debris - & we 

knowingly do things in the languages we like 

to think we’re able to hide our many faces in
