Dissect and Dissipate
Say something!
Or do something...
Someone proclaims profound.
Then observe a probing begin,
To challenge the depthness...
Of where this audacity ends!
A few may take this as auspicousness.
As a gift that touches
Upon a thought or a thing done...
Once dismissed by some.
Others become suspicious,
And wish to know just how much is there.
Believing all their answers will be delivered...
Without them raising a finger,
Or testing a brainwave to lift a hair!
And these are the ones,
Those 'conscious' run from.
Since answers to questions...
Do not please but leave one to despair!
As the one who is interrogated,
Searches to create an exit somewhere!
Some folks are in the business,
To dissect and dissipate!
And astonished when left alone,
When no one wishes with them to participate.
