The paint of illusion Is water thin. It cannot mask What the beholder thinks. Look not in a fountain For the fish of thought. They swim freely in your mind. Exercise your thinking process. We are the thinkers, Who judge the world, With all its infirmities, And some times can't see our own.

Sounds as though you are either on a mind trip or having a flashback of one, but it seems a good one either way...-e-

Many magicians use illusion. Sometimes things are not what they seem to be. Again, another fine poem, George!

Love ya!

I concur. And yes, judgement is a fiery blade that we thrust into the shadow of our reflection, Until it tastes our flesh we are not yet just enough.
Thanks George.

I like the phrase, "The paint of illusion is water thin." It is fleeting. Not skin deep. Love it!
