there are many narratives
they appear in words overheard
advertisements
scriptures
there is a need to wander
and a longing to sit content
a blue pill and a red
metaphor upon metaphor
resistance and escapism
uncertain what it means to be okay
okay to be insane
a madman once told me
the gods are nothing without relief
and magic is nothing without belief
i believed him and found the fifth dimension
unable to reside there and here
leads to me to frustrating situations
to see through people or to see them through
and what it means to be free
it’s a big box
a big sphere
quantum cycles
looking for the source of it all
