Dream Or Not a Dream

Is what we see each day what it really looks like or is it just a self induced imagery place in our mind to stimulate a acceptable comfort in our life, or is this a dream to which we know not how or do not want to wake from cause reality is truely like living on the edge of a really sharp knife. Perception of true time seems to be like a clock that has no hands yet the value of it has a price of high demand, is the true passing of time in measurement to the mountain or Is it just simply defined as falling like a grain of sand. Mythology talks about the fountain that brings us eternal youth but to what end in a sands grain defines the ages, to what exsistsnce is humanity bound to the insanity if we travel in life protected within our self made cages.
