An Obviously Educated Guess

The perfect interpretation

of a lie becomes fact

etched upon a lover's side

who you already know

will be better in hindsight

 

The machinations of self interest

will add a false sense of depth

to the shallow simplifications

of nature's way

 

Even to ourselves

we must foster our delusions

of the grand experience

foraged from a life well lived

 

No one wants to be ordinary

except for the extraordinary

who they themselves

still hold that statement true

by changing it's definition

with their own  persistence

of thought

 

It is all a calamity

of the English language

that seems dead set

on ruining us all

 

And so without other recourse

we all shamble along

under a sky

smaller than our imaginations

yet still bigger than our vision
