How fragile is the thread <br />That anchors us to reality, <br />That spans the gap between here and there; <br />How easily we flow <br />From one side to the other <br />With barely a thought interrupted; <br />'Tis part of the process - <br />Reason is not selective <br />Of the source from which it comes; <br />And therefore may be real or not; <br />How much of inspiration <br />Is personal belief <br />And how much is fantasy? <br />Do our lives get caught up <br />In the passion that is word <br />And the fine line becomes blurred? <br />Do we become the product <br />Of our own imagination <br />With addiction to the written word? <br />'Tis a very fine thread <br />That anchors us to reality...................... <br />Is it strong enough to hold us there?<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/reality-check-2/
