a mere notion

Smiles present such a simple action---yet thought and interrogation of one's own thoughts precede such a gesture. While it may be the gunshot to the trigger for one's response, it often displays an alias. The attempt, or success, of dressing up one's frailty-----confusion---rage------maybe sorrow. A selfless action it may seem. For the receiver of the smile may return it as well, an immediate reaction. perhaps, or maybe dismantled by the sweet gesture. It remains unknown. Such suspicion a small movement from a scintilla portion of the human body can erect. Mentality, curse you.
