Eloquent Masquerade

16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yeY1XJcV8

They don masks of porcelain smiles,

layered thick upon flesh too pure,

a glossed veneer to shield decay.

Hypocrisy seeps from grinning maws,

slipping like venom through ivory fissures.

16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7T1lxM5vy

Cities swell, sprawling like tumors,

devouring the earth's tender breath.

Society grinds, a ceaseless wheel,

spinning on shards of fractured intent,

choices severed from spirit,

bound to the gods of gold and glimmer.

16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8u48aztrv

Appearance reigns,

currency calls,

and humanity fades,

a silhouette

of what once thrived.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZEIKgfK07
