Twisted Verisimilitude

Mornings roughly intrude
into fantastical dreams
as eyelids groggily peel open
and reality becomes
painfully apparent.

Stoically drifting
thru various trials
each day comes faster and
every sleep becomes an escape,
a trip to Never, Never land.

If dreams are heaven
and real life is purgatory
for all the pleasures one
enjoys in their wonderland
then hell is a black hole,
being sucked into nihility.

Nightmares are
purgatory and hell,
each intruding and
vying for position
trying to eradicate
the magic of our dreams.

I like this Mysty,
Your treading fabric of my own curiosity. I've contemplated similar ideas regarding dreams, dream states, and knowledge.

I was working on a scary wonderland story before the fires stole my attention.

Thank You Jolie...... appreciate you took the time to comment on this ..... For those of you who don't know ...... Verisimilitude mean reality and nihility means nothingness. I wrote this Thursday at work...... was very tired and didn't want to wake up for work.... and all day at work was very tired. Maybe need to have my thyroid function tested again to see if I am still at the proper dosage of hormone pill. Anyways .. once again Jolie Thank You for commenting.... I really appreciate it.

Dear Mysty,

First thing..I hope all is well concerning your health! Secondly this was a twisted perception into different states, yes. I love the reality vs. nothingness as well as the comparisons of real life, heaven, and purgatory or what they may be compared to. As usual you showcase your awesome range and give us something to ponder upon. Thank you for sharing this.

Kim

Dear Kim.... Thank You hon for Commenting and being concerned enough to enquire about my health. Yes I am doing ok so far. Anymore would lead to a long long story. Suffice it to say I am surviving and doing it with glee.


PS....... still waiting on those addresses......in email or Pm.

"reality becomes painfully apparent"

Sounds like my state when I woke up this morning at 1:48pm.

"Stoically drifting thru various trials"

Sounds like the fact that I rarely blink at misfortune. Although I see that you are pinning dreams against what we believe to be real, this particular line reminds me of how my own heart responds to real-life adversity.

I haven't had a nightmare in quite some time... I don't know if I can say that I've had a great dream either.

Not a bad piece. I commiserated, and looked outside of my normal scope. Two things that fail to happen with a lot of art. Rock on!

Thanks
