The Frantic
by Mark Miller
Glazed eyes betray masks hidden dwellers awareness
Colors distortion follow behind actors lied performance
Substance of emptiness gravely transforms presence in trance
Identity’s in flux erects fragile panic a cognitive disturbance
Vessels lot of absence, a vacuous state of emotional detachment
Creeper of rose abasement seeks placement being embodiment incarnate
Traits personified materialized through prisms of representation
Subtle charms of past ghosts redress selves in mirrors made flesh
A blank slate hollow hostile in stare enters unnoticeable host
Smiles driven within infinities existence glare beyond chants ghost
Grace of stance drained in fates withered baron void of Cartesian ego
Viscous pets behind twisted crypts protects the encapsulated representation
