The Whirlwind of Illusions

you get lost in a whirlwind every once in a while

and then you build some wings for the 100th time 

because there's the new iphone 8

and you've seen this new movie that you're starting to get obsessed about

googling it 

get your mind off of the vortex

sometimes you watch other people live

not in a creepy way

a certain thing about being the observer and not the observed 

makes you feel less of a human

and you like that

it is like being an entity detached from the human condition

that is, God, so painful sometimes;

you indulge in pop corn

hot dogs and soda

you love different tastes in your mouth

you love how good it feels to experience pleasure and nothing else

it's been so long since you've felt something as simple

you usually feel the most undescribable feelings

a meteorite bound to fall somewhere

a mix between deadly weather and lightning strike;

there's always something shiny

that makes your eyes sparkly

even if it's just the reflection of the light

even if it's just an illusion;

I like in the speaker talking about another; give a feel of being removed. As if you're a bystander. The phrase" not in a creepy way' made me smile. After the last line I thought; " damn that's deep"
