Facades.

 ..."Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says 'Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up.' Man bursts into tears. Says 'But, doctor...I am Pagliacci.'"...



     Everybody's smiling, smiling, smiling. Ear to fraudulent ear donning a grin more fabricated than you're ever led to believe. Everyone is their own unique performer showcasing a secret charade for your daily enjoyment only made possible for the simple fact that well, everyone can smile. A smile's a universal display of happiness, capable of concealing the most awful things. Hiding behind this veil of pearly whites no one's the wiser; no one suspects a thing. You could have murdered your family, cheated on your wife or done something else unfathomably unspeakable and all you have to do is smile, or in the case of murder or adultery... smile and change your clothes. Disgusting.
