ILLUSIONS BRING

ELUSIVE THINGS

YOU MAY REACH OUT AND TOUCH

THAT DON'T AMOUNT TO MUCH

WHEN AT A LOSS FOR WORDS

MOST LIKELY STUMBLED UPON

SOMETHING QUITE ABSURD

UNLESS  IT'S QUITE PROFOUND

A WANDERING MIND WONDERS

WONDERS WHY IT WANDERS

WANDERS WHILE IT WONDERS

A WONDERING MIND WANDERS

EVERYTHING HAS MANY SIDES

STUDY THEM AND THEN SURMISE

WHAT TO THINK IF YOU ARE WISE

YOU MAY BE A BIT SURPRISED

HOW MANY THINGS YOU MAY FIND

IF YOU JUST USE YOUR MIND

DOES ANYBODY REALLY 

SEE THINGS AS THEY ARE

WHAT LENSES DO THEY LOOK THROUGH 

WHEN THEY WISH UPON A STAR

WE SEE WHAT WE WANT TO SEE

AND HEAR WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR

AND SO OUR REALITY

IS NEITHER HERE NOR THERE

I GUESS THE IMPORTANT THING

IS TO TRY TO BE MORE AWARE

IDIOTIC IDEOLOGY

IDIOSYNCRASY

SO PSYCHOTIC NO APOLOGY

DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME

WATCH OUT FOR RABBIT HOLES

TRY TO AVOID THEM

DON'T GO DOWN ONE OF THOSE

THEY ARE A PROBLEM

YOU'LL GET COMPLETELY LOST

AND VERY CONFUSED

AND PAY SUCH A HIGH COST

THAT LEAVES YOU BEMUSED    

LISTENING TO RAIN ON THE WINDOW PANE

CALMS YOUR BRAIN WHEN IT IS TAME

IF IT COMES DOWN HARD AND FAST

THEN I HOPE THAT IT WON'T LAST

WHEN IT'S GENTLE I MUST SAY

I'D LOVE TO LISTEN ALL DAY

WHOEVER IS CAPABLE

OF BEING DESPICABLE

SHOULD NOT BE PREDICTABLE

IT'S JUST INEXPLICABLE

HOW IT IS FORMIDABLE
