lest one forgets...

It happens more often than you'd like to, especially in places where people have been moulded into a mask of phoneyness that becomes their very face.

Where you'd hope to see candour, feelings, flesh & blood, you quickly realise you're just seeing dried-out, amorphous things through a carefully crafted veil of ice. Translucent, but beyond reach.

What they don't realise is that some keen observers can actually see through the 'mystery' pose - and the sight is seldom pretty.

Nothing, nothing is more disappointing than banality and narrow-mindedness disguised as aloofness.
