Illusions
Did you know that to believe
you take a thought and then do
weave
a story from it that does
deceive
all in this world, so you may
perceive
illusions.
Whatever comes to your mind to
think
just know it's gone in another
wink.
It's only when you stall and
hum
that thoughts cement and thus
become
illusions.
Because I'm just a human being
beyond God's thoughts or in
between
I find I'm sad or mad or glad
defining this image as full of
bad
illusions.
A gal that's happy to be free
of thoughts of you and
thoughts of me.
Alone I drift upon the sea
wondering now who holds the
key
to illusions.
This nothingness, which I
gladly bare
dost keep me dancing in the
air
or swimming in the great
nowhere
so deep it leaves no one to
care
about illusions.
And so I go about this world
a human being whose hair is
curled
with thoughts a wandering in
fields all pearled
with illusions.
