Plato's Prisoners

William Garza

Veteran Member
Time of past OR future Camino
Camino Frances, The Jakobsweg
Plato's Prisoners sit and mutter all
Staring at shadows on the wall

Second guess the nature of reality from the folds and warp and weft left by the flames
Lifetime spent in empty gesture
While we wait
In shadows vesture.

Its warm and safe and dry
When you never ask when,how or why
Outsides world is wild,fierce and wide
I would go blind to sail that tide

The algorithms logic cant deny
We'll be safe if we stay inside.

And books we see and we abide..for hasnt it always been

What we saw!!
And what was seen?

We know the form
But they are not what they seem.

Pilgrim
It is one thing to see
It is another thing..
To See.
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
