Asking of You

How do you view the world ?

    Is your sight through eyes of your own ?

        Does the vision come by clear and sober ?

            Or is it cluttered, needing sharpened & honed ?

How much of your view is obstructed ?

    Is your viewpoint elevated and clear ?

        Or is the field of view constantly interrupted ?

            By a mass of hysteria that's near ?

Are you able to bring your sights in better focus ?

    Or does it remain blurred, beyond your control ?

        Do you believe you have the best optics ?

            Or has your lense now corrupted your soul ?
