Upside Down World Is What Our Eyes See

Just like a pin-hole camera's image
The image formed on our eye's retina
Is upside down and cock-eyed
But our brain's used to that,
And tricks us with reversion version
So what we think we see is flipped downside up reality
Our view is an illusion flipped up and flopped over
Sunny side up to go.
