Fakes all around the place - A tribute

I guess there is an amount of "fakeness" in every (Every ??? or may be most) human being. You take a look at the world and you can see a lot of fakes moving around in all shapes and sizes, You check out things in the market and you see fakes there also. Once I'd a conversation with a friend about the most desirable companies in IT sector. As we were talking about various things like HR practices, back ground checking, the pay packages, the usual blah blah, he made an interesting revelation that a prominent MNC bank doesn't care even if they find out their employees had produced fake experience certificates. Well this made me think a little bit deep into the matter and I just couldn't find a plausible explanation for that. Then I turned my eyes to the nature, the universe and I could see analogies there also like clouds looming up in the horizon threatening a downpour and the a couple of minutes later revealing a brilliant blue sky. I had an introspection and then found out that there is some "fakeness" in myself also. This saddened and amused me at the same time. Sadness because it was a hit on my ego. Amusement came from the fact that I'd been accepted by the world without any apprehensions. I just realized that the world doesn't have any problems in dealing with fakes. It's just like the other side of the coin, like black and white, like life and death, like love and hatred etc... you just can find zillions of analogies. So I just started thinking about the people around me and came across a specimen case who I thought was quite a natural(frankly speaking I don't like judging people because judging brings in inevitable comparisons which are just a waste of time and energy and keeps your mind off the track from the goal) but was actually a fake wearing the garb of a liberal, secular person. It was disgusting to say the least. He sure is a talented person but trying to be a "jack of all trades" is not just his cup of tea. I could see the poison filled fangs in that smile and intolerance he shows when someone criticizes him. And that was a revelation which left me reeling. I thought about this but nothing came out except the raw admiration to the guy's ability to fake. Hats off pal for carrying of that image of a natural.

As darkness looms ahead,
I could feel the chill of the poison filling my heart
Oh the great lord of fake
Surrender I do to you
Rein in my heart
Rein in my heart.
