359 Degree Blind Spot

.
your eyes,
like flashlights in the dark
where ever you look
you see light
thus falsely assuming
your light is everywhere
at the same time

you are "The Seer"?
you've got the "Big Picture"?
you've got to be kidding!

you just think you know
but I know you don't

no one else does either!

we believe
but what if we stop one day
and get out of the cab
and learn the song the singer is singing
and hear the prophets words
for a moment or two

brilliant work!

from almost 4 years ago...

delusions can be beautiful
and verisimilitudinous...
and alluring,. and can overwhelm and captivate a mind

singers are not immune
neither are the "prophets"

thanks for your gracious remarks

Even if someone convinces us they've got the answers, it's only our opinion only our thoughts that think like that. You got me thinking, see your poem works perfectly. Regards Roscoe...

Roscoe Llane,

Religion will rip your faith off, and return
for the mask of disbelief that's left.

yes, to be convinced of anything just requires one's thought patterns to be aligned with how the convincer thinks....voila!...agreement (no matter how bogus the arguments might be)

people know things, but name one that knows everything! even if someone knew everything, could he think of it all at the same time...everything being contigent?

so, I conclude, nobody knows, or could ever know the whole damn truth!

so be it,

thanks for expressing

Al
