BEYOND INSANITY

BEYOND INSANITY

 

There’s a line in the sand, but hard to see

Upon crossing it, another universe awaits

No longer the safe logic offering crutches

Just the new and strange lingering touches

But then, has one really tempted the fates

This is the alternate world beyond insanity

 

One may at first be feeling alone and lost

Yet soon a new reality assumes normality

With a view of before like the fourth wall

Looking at an audience, applauding it all

It feels like a theatre in some odd locality

Now remember that line that was crossed

 

With a brain somehow working overtime

Juggling all that’s fake and what was true

All that went before, was a mere fantasy

With its filing cabinet mis-labelled sanity

Now only unanswered queries can accrue

In-trays with verses that no longer rhyme

 

Looking back to check a line in the sand

Runs the high risk of dramatic realisation

A future exclusively to tread the boards

With bad performance receiving awards

This new identity should be a revelation

It’s a future that one cannot understand

 

The gap in the fence is narrow, not wide

Now even the past appears quite strange

Yet this is the present, and one of many

For the ferryman, hold on to this penny

So just wait now, for the light to change

Then I’ll be seeing you on the other side
