Perceptions of Reality (or: How to understand a Universe)

As the Human Mind is bound

-

Within it's senses

-

Limited

-

Imagination it is found

-

Doth suffer

In parenthesis

-

(Imagination)

-

Thus

Restrained

-

Incapable

-

(So tightly chained)

-

May not imagine boundless plains

-

Nor endless continuity

Perception

-

It would seem has trained

-

Tamed

Perhaps

or

Even maimed

-

Our modern

-

Focused

-

Fettered

-

Brains

-

So needful

of

Emergence

-

Into an age

-

Imagine it

-

Unlimited

-

In which we fit

-

Unlimited

-

Changed

-

In a look

-

If we could just

-

Put down that book

Of

Rules

-

We have become

As shapes may come

and

Shapes may go

-

Perception

From our senses flows

-

Yet all we see

Can be undone

-

Done up

Rethought

-

To

Find

The sum

-

Beyond the brink

-

That is not there

-

We need to think

Ourselves

-

To where

-

We understand

-

Perceptions

of

Reality
