In this strange world, I now strive for sensibility.
I learned to reason against people's hostility.
But I try to evade branding culpability.
That results in unfortunate liability.

There is no mask on my face for a grand masquerade.
I'll not cloak myself in false wisdom under shade.
There are some logical faults in my thoughts that are weighed.
Writing's sure to reflect when from reason I have strayed.
