Smoke and Mirrors

It's a tall order...

By Camilla SiigPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Learn to read between the lines. You're not looking in and out, up and down, one way and the other.

Consider that...reality is tangible, in the way your visceral nature commands. Do you feel?

You think you can cut the tether - but it's invisible. Did you imagine that there is more than what seems? That you can grasp without a hand, and understand without thinking.

Can you challenge chemistry with alchemy? May be. But possibilities are only as in/finite as your potential. Where do you place yourself and where do you find yourself?

Is it really as clear as you thought? Or are your thoughts just as muddy as the boggy ground - that in it's twisted power, gives rise to the chaos that feeds life.

Who do you believe stands between you and your self? There are barriers. Don't get me wrong, I'm here too. But sacrifice is wasted when it's for nothing.

Who really died for our sins? Let we forget, principles stand forever. Orders are mandates and the human condition is in-built. What are we doing playing games through screens when we have our own interface?

Succumb to a tune that resonates within...or we will all be zombies.
