i must admitt my head is going round in circles on this one as it seems to make no semantic sense whatsoever but it has the superficial attraction of appearing to be a sophisticated perverse truism in a decadadent social context, perhaps it is... saludos robin sorry about et al perhaps they can explain if its neither is or when & why it should be shame & a reward

"plastic obscenity" -- that's a very interesting variation of two common occurences, but when put together, they describe what this poem does to me: People being so fake that it's unjustifiable by any measure of decency.

Very nice work "not-so-shy" Poet (smiles)

Yikes! What a strong message here. This is certainly a "modern" haiku. Much enjoyed! :)
