Tampering with Illusion

 

 

What does it look like? Each dimension offers beauty. Older souls offer sophistication. Younger souls offer emphases. To need: we should ponder that. (Such a lowness to this song; damn near unbearable.) It feels baptized. 

I was looking at morning, mourning the fallen.  

She was a unique woman: blessed, sullen, putting pieces together, mystical, anti-religion, feminist, etc. 

She was well read, judgmental, elitist—I never had a chance, I meant to remember that. 

On to something else. 

Aesthetic necks. Hidden napes. Defensive hair. 

I sense presence. Consciousness is riddled. (I imagine an entire life uninvestigated, slow self-torment, watching, reading, feeling, remaining faithful: I’d opt out if possible: it’s too much.)

Such keen insights, such gifts to life, to hells, to love, always tugged, mental, partway there.

The record is stippled in spirit. To feel fire, to adore a phantom—knowing there will … as in never, to abuse self that way.

Give a soul his mind. Sure surreality; certain pressures. Give a spirit its sight, to imagine loyalty. So against us; so close to unreality. 

Those moments being evasive; those charms by heart sequences. And one stands neither in nor out, such tyranny. 

Long live those waves, longer into reflection. 

I sense it’s unusual to love. One must be equipped. Status quo.  I was seeing inside—a picture appeared, it seems kind. 

And I’ll find sunrise, challenged by deception, to ruin what most never appreciate.  Outstanding beauty; sheer unbelievable; wrestling; if a soul could fathom, one would be amazed—the battle, those fields, mind wars. 

To see our behavior; to know for justification; to suggest—it went too far.  A person will lie to create perfection; to imagine where we push souls. 

It unravels. We feel achy. It was always imaginary. 

Give a soul her mind. Sudden exhilaration; renowned pressures.
