To Know, To Feel

the worst battle is between what you know and what you feel if my life was a jar if my life was a painting if I was to paint if i was free to draw the distance between the feeling and the know some may see the jar half full some may see the jar half empty between what the mirror reflects and what the eye detects leaving the collage of the core in my skies some do soar in my seas some escape the drown and swim in my bottomless bottom some dissolve, an eternal ode to a distant horizon, to a distant rim birds and fishes , some sailors never see the sea so down below doing the busy doin the dishes a collage behind my eyes lonely sighs on wings of wonder some trade wings for fins and swims and some flies Tamer Hossam
