MaD PlaYS + bAd aCTinG

They put stage sets all around
made of paper mache
fashioned it in tree bark and
earthy ground
over filled it with sights and
high scales of sound

Drizzled it with dazzling
colour so one might be fooled
that all realities are the real
end
a one way train
with covered windows
hiding away all the tracks and
the bends

Oh, they threw in a god or two,
a secret hope or purpose
Oh, if only the fools knew
though, the mad it seems,
already do

Most though find it hard, too
flimsy to make real
turning to dust as it inevitably
does
the actors forever fleeing

Is BoJo the driver? Much like he will jump before it reaches the cliff.

Wow this is deep!Β  There are so many things in life that are not as they seem. So many people who are not as they seem either. Life is a precarious journey x

To throw in a god has been humanity's biggest error, it has divided us, given us false hope, for we are truly lost to the meaning of our existence, I find more meaning on this site.

Thank you so much x
