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

Clever here multiple images as metaphor refract light into glimmers and illusion. The object is not where it is perceived but at a different angle. Nicely done
Superb work.
