They being a couple
talk together in ways
the man thinks he a scholar
audacious he is always
really knows very little
a great showman in terms
an empty drum in place.
The woman an equal partner
talks as soft as she can
speaks one means another
a perfect match to her man
seeks faults in every aspect
from the porridge to the garland
both poke their nose into every possibility
she being manipulative and dangerous
very much akin to a fox in a goat’s skin.
These two are made for each other
one gossips all through the day
the other causes a ripple everywhere
they too live long with such attitude
push forth and push back the genuine
well, it is the fake that glitters and gleams
the real shines with a glow modest and moderate
the world would know the truth one day
the virtual can never overcome the real.
