camouflage

my flippancy sometimes misleads ideas. if not, impressions. i'm only circumspect in my replies. c'mon. i'm not sure what "he said she said". i keep "arcanums" to myself. they're in titanic proportions, mind you. i'm not good with opening up. am sure a warning has been sent. some people consider me their confidante. yes, believe it or not. but when i'm intoxicated, i slip. at times, when i get the hang of "disclosing", my mouth just keeps on opening and talking, independent of my conscious and guilty mind.

i know one person in my past whom i consider my "inverse self". when he talked or i asked him about someone, i never just got the name, i got a potted CV. so typical of him. but his tendency to pretentiousness was just a kind of eccentricity and i found it rather endearing. whatever happened to him?
