Reality Lost...

That people would want to bury themselves
in nothing but pure fiction -- in both reality, and in reading
concerns me to no end ....

For man to concern himself with fantasy,
instead of the monster we call reality -
is unto itself, the greatest fallacy of all man kind.

As an ever rising flood of pain embellishes itself,
wraps us like a warm blanket forgiving no fear ;
leaving no trace of ourselves in the reflection
it's overwhelming wake of power
consumes us to no end

Again, ...we find no love in war ;

In the final hours
we find our hopes
only there inside
of our dreams

reality lost
in the fields
of manufactured
free thought

we are appeased
