Tie Me up Illusionarily

Help!
Being held hostage
by Reality--

call the Illusion Police--

who can come to stage
my imaginary release
whereby I can triumphantly
return to Reality
where my bonds
have been illusioned away
by a Reality
which provides me
a different kind of Illusion
such that I can have
my free choice
between the two.
And which is which
between I and you.

Suddenly you touch me
and I am confused
and retreat to my

preferred
illusion.

(sigh)
