Bit By Bit



Bit by bit,
Mentalities limited...
Have been easily chipped away,
From a consciousness.
To know the difference made.
Yet continue to resist,
The presence of an existing reality.
They have no control over.
Or will this delusion remain permitted.

From the dirt of Earth,
We have all been born to live.
And there are no exceptions.
Left accepted to protect.
Yet...
Fiction creators and deceivers who lie,
Interpret the truth...
As theirs to deny, hide and disguise.
But from what?
Kept to keep their ignorance hidden.
Themselves?
Or those imitating pretensions given.

Bit by bit,
Slowly fades away any awareness.
Gone is a thought process.
Using remnants of common sense.
Subjected as suspicious.
Since proof of having it,
Is today demanded...
To produce that as evidence.
And where was it found to find?
When the majority of people,
Are out of their minds!
