There is a conscience, and it questions persistently
Answering is a choice as it is to run away from it and steal a path
Fancy peeking into the minds and collecting those thoughts?
Taking frantic notes and attaching dodgy meanings to create fantasies
Many such aggrandized pieces seduced into silent resignation
Fanfare and frolic; cavorting to the lascivious tunes
Conscience witnesses the nonsense and has a wry smile
One has to return to answer the questions; there’s no escape
From the interrogations about choices across a stolen path
