Faithful Illusion

Upon hours spent, little hope is lent To a far more pleasing incandescent light A hue of clockless space seen upon its face Aggravating the light into a speckled fright Futuristic visions, are merely illusions Yet ne’er doth the lie cease to glisten And many wait with a faith hard to trace Lost in a teleported reverie of lasting confusion

Delightful word pic! The last two lines especially capture my own thoughts on needing to keep myself grounded in the present. Love it. Chuck

Motivating Laura, spurring one to take initiative, why wait for truth when one can make it! A thin distinction between predicting the future and making the future - Truly exquisite metaphors as always, very oracle like my friend! Like a spice that must be applied sparingly - J.A.B. %
