"Your Dissappearin' act, well, that's an old standby..."
...and so is the title and above quote;
borrowing words from an American Music
Club song title hopefully does not diminish
the "meaning" and import of them, as they
are meant in a self-referential way.
Relying on other's words, admittedly,
serves as a bit of a prophylactic, so to say...
but may they serve that purpose,
for now at least, as I find no affinity,
at present (if ever anymore) for the gift
(read: illusion) of original thought
and more particularly it's conveyance.
However feebly, half-heartedly and
ham-fisted-ly I attempt to force fit the
borrowed words, the perhaps out of
context, often ambiguous metaphor here,
the coyness, real, feigned or even imagined
there, the cliches, the over-riding lack of
structure throughout (and not to forget the
ambivalence masquerading as a ruse
or visa versa) I am sure as I can be, dear
reader, you will not be able to help taking
all of this as you please, including and
perhaps especially this admission,
in spite of, or even despite, all the might
of a forced empathy.
With this held (loosely i trust)
in mind...
