Reality, wow what a concept lifes provable facts those incontrovertible truths things that stick out and not fall in the cracks Its subject to interpretation you see describing the elephant for the blind this part the leg, that a tail, this part a trunk!! Divine! For reality takes an observer to set itself in the track if that tree fell in the woods with no one to hear did it make a sound of a crack? Without perception, it's all contention if it ever existed at all and we are all running around with vivid imaginations on ground till incontrovertible evidence is found See it, touch it, document away till the item in question is in decay or maybe even obliterated away the observation itself causing the obliteration to stay And so that was how faith was born for people to believe in others known truths we didn't have to experience it first hand we just had to trust like a youth And from that comes charlatans who mangle that truth for cash and make the world a caricature and history rewritten despite past With no firm understanding of what is or firm understanding of what was people lose their compass and look to god above
