We have evolved to survive not to see what is there.
We have developed filters,
and only see what we absolutely need to
for our own well-being.
If, all of a sudden, we saw reality as it is
we would probably go extinct,
being unprepared,
being too specialized,
blocking out all else
that does not keep us safe
inside a narrow spectrum.
The reality-video game
is designed to take us to the next level;
it gives us survival tools, time, next steps,
but if we ever got to the highest level
of this game of realization,
we might well be too enlightened
to evermore live within the dark
that we now consider to be the light.

The waves came to sweep me
on the pebbles
Through the ears of the breeze
I whispered you
On the wings of the albatross
I saw the rising sun
Today exhausted I am on the stone
numbed feelings my poem is
By the thread of the living theory
I am feared existence
Bottomless dungeon of inferential news
I blame the times
I forget myself; I forget myself meaninglessly
for the self-made roots

Behind his endless daydream, behind his boundless self-esteem, what's picking up steam?
Swines Capture Team, proceeding plans stacked ream over ream, as well as their seamless dragnet scheme.
Hush money he can pay, for impunity he can pray, Justice never looks the other way.
Futile his bark and bay, futile his bray, imminent his reckoning day.
Donald, a sham piece; dolt nerd is slammed apiece, by nemesis without ruth,
whether he flounders tooth and nail or nail and tooth.
Trump in trance, trumpery in truth, a big and bold gone goose for FBI to sleuth!

Sun rises and sun sets
Sun sets and sun rises
Seasons change on time
All species move to and fro
As the earth goes round and round
And I watch...
Cold-eyed I watch
Detached.....
Here but not here
Numbed.....
By my sudden loss
