Reflection of an illusionA Poem by SorenEverything I know is wrong My limited vision My misguided beliefs My prejudiced point of view My exaggerated sense of power My empty purpose There are no facts The only anchor, my feelings What are emotions? Tied to time They are waves of the moment Tides of the day They come and go Rise and fall Push and pull Covering one’s surface They dive to the foundation of the soul Distorting the image of all that’s under them Moving and molding what they touch That undulating liquid That constantly changes shape Difficult to hold Although necessary for life It can also take it But then life itself is not only a mystery But an illusion A dream An extension of consciousness And what is that All that I am Or rather all that exists A storm built of innumerable forces Seen only in part An atom in the engine of the universe Too small to detect By definition Joined in synchrony with every other part But alone, solitary, isolated Once again everything and nothing In this form A glimmer in the night Creation’s transitory spark Here then gone Changed A mere reflection of an illusion
