Mystification

Mystification
By: Tyler Ross

its becoming evident
the signs are green
the obvious indications vibe
used company echoes
reception digs its mark
a coin lays heads down
the other side a mystery
lies are the question symbol
truth scapegoat'd now a scandal
assessment runs its course
spirit's priceless value returned
a smile retracted
a voice silenced
adoration and sincerity in doubt
not burnt out but future sidelined
