The Illusions of Our Reality
Ron Flatow (C)
our thoughts are many,
our ideas and actions are brought forward from our intent.
Our concepts for material progress only help in separating us from ourselves further.
We are the masters of our own illusions
and we are the victims to our own devices.
Creating our desires yet fooled by our own ego to perceive its realism.
We are more than what we appear to be,
but our concepts, perceptions and beliefs play host to our own deceptions
as we choose to knowingly and unknowingly fool others in turn we fool ourselves
and yet we are none the wiser, for we are the illusion of our reality.
