Confusion

Promises made in a background voice

never intending to fulfill.

Searching for something to search for,

but still reluctant to knock on new doors.

Offering credentials that misrepresent

as noble scoundrel, counterfeit hero

who thunder will not deafen. water will not wet,

even in this fifth season tempest.

Reality only marginally real, existence non algebraic

where D rarely equals L x W.

Electricity can be felt but not touched,

here misrepresented by illogical powerlines

crossing roads at too acute an angle

triggering cross firing synapses.

This is confusion.
