Veneer

Aimlessly erring
A life without bearing

Knifing, wolfing, gulping
Instead of living
Moments
Blinded by societal currents

Content of not knowing
Not wondering
If you're a human, doing
rather than a human, being?

Not realising you are fusing
With the mask you're wearing

And so the mask you will become
Just another lost in the maelstrom
