Hallucinations and Foolery
ⓒ 8-19-2024, Olan L. Smith
A life within a life
Within people, dreaming;
We're mere puffs of clouds on lazy days,
That is the delusion we perceive.
Whoa! The cow jumps over the moon!
Reality is foolery, dare I say trumpery?
Life is an illusion within deluded minds.
Quantum waves, waving back at us through
the mirror, laughing. Oh, where was I?
I remember spinning allusions as we traveled down
The happy black hole leading to nevermore.
The laughter heightens as we wave within the waves,
Of tornadic action. Are we going down or up to Oz,
Dorthy? Come, little peeps, take a peek with other
Hallucinating Who, along for the ride, toodde-oo.
