contest How the echo filters reality
sponsor Dilly Dally
Yesterday's echos filter the reality of today
measured in the passing of years
vibrating through the valley of my mind
from the echos, I chose to hear
casting aside those unwanted
whether from deceit or abandonment
in a prison built in my mind's desert
where I see a mirage of an old man
looking into a mirror
seeing the shadows in his eyes
that haunt his reality
from the echos of a lifetime
