Dreams in a Box

As dreams in a box
We live out our lives
-
Aware of ourselves
-
Our worlds distance derived
-
Though horizons may come
And horizons may go
In boxes we stay
-
Trapped by Time
In it’s flow
-
Our decisions decide
Where that box with our name
May travel the system
Will move
or
Remain
-
Escape is uncertain
-
We have to be blind
-
To the world, as we know it

For it’s all in the mind

Dreams in a box.
Hard to contain them--and I'm not certain I'd want to.

It's a lovely piece.

Thanks Mel

This is sort of connected with the "Where is your here" thing.

I think close horizon/distant horizon - We are still "in the box" with the same area of view, it's just one view (distant horizons) just become less detailed than the close ones.

The box does not get any bigger!

It stays real as long as you want it to.
