A short journey

where are we
how are we
who are we
why are we

i am me
you are you
we are we
just us, too

around
around
around
now down

the blue flame sets
amidst orange glow
a mini scene emits
as though from Dante's hell
where plato's cave calls
perception to the fore

The sky brightens
another day as no other
unique as time passes
another set of experience alive
and i think to myself
what a wonderful whirled

Louie croones in the background
all is not what it seems
colors belie the earth tone
change evolves to flow with time
never hinting that we reach
a breaking point

Divisional cluster emissions
apparent harmony of recognition
fiction melts upon discernment
to reveal naked truth
light rhythm illuminates

Layer upon layer of embedded fluff
as far as the eye can see
behind the illusion -- the void
we fill the void with chatter
instead of linking minds
