The Confirmation Bias

-this is 6! -no! this is 9! -with 6 I'm the truth! -no! you belie it! with 9 I'm the truth! For the true and the lie We, the people are tired this is earth that is space here we are walking there we are flying (have to fly) but we, the same person (here and there) some difference makes us quarrelsome! if we want we can solve it together solve it in a peaceful mind better but we don't want to understand each other! cause we, every people live in the confirmation bias! -April 28, 2019, Chattogram

Ha, ha. Very enjoyable, Mahtab. Here's something to chew on: What if parallel universes do, in fact, exist, but they are upside down?! So 6 is 9 and vice versa all the time,... and 'Mom' is 'Wow,' by the way, (which she is down here too! Wink. Wink.) Blessings, Gershon

I began to read wondering, what is he about? What is this? When I realized I became amazed. Your poetry is getting better which I was not aware was possible until now. Something has changed, and wow! WOW!
