Reflection

slipping between ideas and projected images
we struggle to create a reality outside of truth.
our job is to create some alternative and interesting
story which transcends the mundane existence of our lives.
we think if we can seek the controversy
or seek the exotic that we will achieve success and fame.
so we manufacture a reality outside of the truth
and outside of presence.
and the we try to live this story
this play that we have written that seems more
interesting than the life that we lead.
the problem is that the playwright
and the play have been extracted
from the unfolding of a life which is flowing from its source.
when we try to become the playwright
and set a course that isn’t in touch with our situation
then we realize there is no other moment.
