Unreal

2781

Real is unreal 

Does anybody know 

Fortunes found in fantasy 

What a way to go.

 

Tangibles intangible 

What ups and flies away 

Instructable 

Inscrutable 

We all will get our day.

 

Keep it real 

Real is unreal

Don't you know -

 

Full on action 

Front row seats 

 

Fine dining 

 

Friends 

 

No whining. 

 

Watch

 

Don't wait 

 

Times up for debate 

 

Who knows the ending 

 

Who wants to be ascending 

 

Won't the first be last 

 

It's a real master-class 

 

Even better under the master's wing 

Safe and secure 

Makes you want to sing

 

Sure that's not real 

 

Catch the flow

 

Real is unreal 

 

All this

 

Just part of the show.

    Once convinced that one can not tell the difference between real and unreal the crowd is easily manipulated and dominated. Nicely written

  • Tristan Robert Lange

    Valiantstar, the refrain “real is unreal” works well as the backbone here… it gives the poem that looping, reflective rhythm while the images move from everyday life to something more philosophical. That tension drives the whole piece forward. The final thought wraps it nicely: “Just part of the show.” Nicely framed idea, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

    Are you sure it is 'real is unreal' and not 'unreal is real'?

      God knows?

        You asking me?? So that's what this bloody uncomfortable seat is - I'm sitting on the right hand of the Almighty, and am supposedly his mouthpiece. Wish someone had given me the Duty Statement before I applied....

          As I say to my beloved - you need a cloud...

          • Doggerel Dave

            One hopes there is no irony there and that your beloved manages.......................
