of densities and paranoia
when tree barks turn to wide-eyed monstersmuch worse, how it suddenly makes perfect sense
to look with tinted glasses
for meaning behind "how-do-you-do"s and "hello"s
only to find out that those "how-do-you-do"s mean "hello"
and those "hello"s... "how-do-you-do"
just that and nothing more
and still you swear you are sure
you caught a well-crafted lie
until the next day when
guilt catches up on you
and you say sorry where sorry's due
so you dismiss "hello"s that pass for "how-do-you-do"s
and you shrug off "how-do-you-do"s that pass for "hello"s
with no less than a scoff
for you swear you are sure
there is nothing (at all) wrong
with "hi"s, "hello"s, and smiles
so now you mistake wide-eyed monsters for tree barks
what's worse is
you let them
eat you up alive.
