Between Illusion and Thought

 

The mind grapples between illusion and thought.

 Images of memories

 Events that never happened

 Hover behind reason

 And swirl in dreams 

Without logic or sense.

0ppressed by

 Pictures of hopes

 Of objects he once longed 

 To possess

He struggled once

Tearing his trousers

 Climbing an iron fence

To glimpse in a fountain

golden fish

That still swim in his mind

Eternal symbols

Of a fisher of men
