Thinking What They Want
They look where they look because they believe to look that way
and when they look they see what they believe to be that way,
but what they see is what they want to believe to see
and believing they see it they believe it to be,
they believe only what they believe,
and what they see is an image from within their own head,
believing with unquestioned want, seeing what they want to believe,
and not believing what is there to see.
