We’re paper mache people whose balloons have burst unnoticed Laughing though we’re all unsure exactly what the joke is A costume party where the guests forget where they begin Becoming clones of cliches from the ads whose themes we sing The tailors to the Emperor finally fell for their own tale Although the sea inside us all is where these fantasies set sail Pieces on the board moved by a hand not known as theirs A knowing thats so vast though lost as soon as one compares Drops suspended midway as we plunge towards the void Out of which all things come forth, neither created nor destroyed
