Sometimes something good needs understating to be understood, needs towing back the cliché status that empties meaning from the phrases used so often once they held the singularity of a bell. When words on overtime ring false cheer, cause everyone's saying them, it numbs the ears. Picking up catchlines. The wrong word at the wrong time lost you future friends. The wrong word at the right time started up a trend. The right word at the right time is only in your head. Sometimes something bad needs overstating in a sense gone mad. When pain fear and grief become to easy to believe then the feeling isn't coming through. When we daily consume oversimplified gloom reported by strangers, we fear anything we're not set to receive and feel alienated. So when someone's pain gets in our faces, we need to hear different phrases that we can believe. What kind of world have we created where basic feelings need re-creating to avoid the perceptions of fiction and cliché being received? How long before, via screen mentality, will we all forget how to tell the reality apart from the act? There's the duality, careful how you feed.
