Day 492 - Clarity v 2

There will be moments of clarity,
Where the comedy of the trap 
Appears more acute than normal. 

You might be sat at a desk 
Or in a meeting room 
Surrounded by men with a seriousness 
So neatly pinned to their faces 
That their every movement seems absurd. 

In such circumstances 
You might be compelled 
To turn to the nearest and ask 
Do you like jazz? 
Or how do you know if you've ever truly been in love? 

In all circumstances 
This must be resisted;
There remains certain arenas 
Where the smallest act of humanity
Will be seen as treason.
