Reality Vs. Constructs
by Michael Doyle

An understanding states and instructs
That the "real world" consists of constructs
We all oblige each other to reach an understanding
But to apply this loosely rather than too demanding

This is to say we lie so often to our imagination
That we insist unreal things are real by tradition
It's from such constructs that we struggle to be free
Breaking our shackles to explore our fantasies

It's the inter-crossing boundaries that are stranger
Than, the normalcy sought that breeds the most danger
Of the dangers that intrude overtly and seemingly most
These are the shadows of the past, living on as ghosts
