Virtual Reality
VIRTUAL REALITY
i just might fall,
the mighty heights feel real.
i’m blind to all that lies
beyond my sight,
though i hear voices in my head.
this reality’s gotten a little stranger.
plush grass tickles my bare feet.
i sit on a checkered blanket
in a horror scene —
a really bad kiss from a zombie king.
i change the channel quick
before he eats my lips!
the driver hits every speed bump
my head aches, then smooth open highway
becomes a lullaby vista.
i fall asleep in the back seat of a moving car…
but wait i’m supposed to be driving…
thus i head for the cliff…
i just might fall…
outside voices catch me...
snatching away my headgear.
that was quite a trip.
my lips are bleeding…

Single Element: Virtual Reality
Multiple elements: grass under bare feet, a really bad kiss, falling asleep in the back seat of a moving car.
