concentrate on periphery
it's less dangerous or slippery
edges blur, focus soften
don't question reality so often
frame the answer that you avoid
then let thinking slide so not destroyed
disregard what's out of view
it may be core or coating that's untrue
perfection doesn't need attention
be happy, comply with convention
easels stand with three points of contact
laws of physics, unchallenged fact
shadows are correctly situated
lulled, partially sedated
pretty pictures they soothe the soul
relinquish self and forsake control
smash obstruction, see reality
lose faith in safe mortality
jump through windows, trust your own sight
just not right now, no, please not tonight
close the curtains, forget this stage
no need to worry within your cage
look how peaceful we could be
without an eye for surreality
