Shades of Reality

reality is unclear behind walls things disappear via dreams pasts reappear and we return to joy or fear we share faces on our phone watch them move and talk so convincingly we are shown their smiles say we're not alone senses shape our clarity depending how we choose to see think about reality interpret indecisively January 17, 2021 Premiere Contest: Suzette Prime Poetry Sponsor: Emile Pinet

Nice one Sandra! I like the philosophy you convey in this “senses shape our clarity depending on how we choose to see” Best wishes in the contest..

nice write....we see reality patterns in 1/14 of second intervals...translating to a consistency of/in our perceptions that peaks at about a 56% surety...that surety is with respect times direction as an effect yes....but that surety is just over 50%..... still a gamble......ah heck.....we do our best...........stan sand
