Reality

Reality, so much more than just a screen.
Reality, excepting that we are human beings.
Who have habits, and that it’s what makes us unique.
Those special habits, that are the real peak.
To the iceberg that is evolution
Such a burden, but a gift.
As long as there are good people in this world,
Reality can uplift.
Who cares about shows than sneer and tease
They have me sitting back and thinkin’ “Oh please!”
This isn’t real, this isn’t right.
What’s really pure is what
Is plain in sight.
The ants, the grass, the dirt, the plants
All these natural things enhance
Reality
