Voices In My Head

I could hear voices that were urgent.
I tried to figure out what they meant...
About their origin, I wasn't sure.
I wondered why was I chosen here.

I was in a dilemma about what to do.
About their credibility I had no clue.
Should I pay attention to those voices?
Or should I go ahead with my choices?

"Joan of Arc With Her Voices" by Eugene Thirion (1876)

Reality Check

What's reality & what's not?
What's cold & what's hot?
What's ugly & what's pretty?
What's dumb & what's witty?

What's reality & what's not?
What's a little & what's a lot?
What's dark & what's fair?
What's negligence & what's care?

What's reality & what's not?
What's tall & what's short?
What's love & what's hatred?
What's said & what's unsaid?

"Funny, when you finally faced reality, it was amazing how clearly you could see things."- Mary Higgins Clark 

What's reality & what's not?
Depends on our perception & spot.
Though minds "think" & eyes "see",
Why are we divorced from reality?

My reality is different from all,
My reality is my creation & my call.
The lens with which I view,
Shows me many images new.

My understanding & interpretation,
Shapes my reality with perception.
Yes, all this is real cent percent...
Reality is an opportunity God-sent.

"I am not a person who is about reality. I am about enhanced reality."- Tom Ford 

High time to do a reality-check audit,
Realize that life is on bit by bit.
Enjoy whatever is in store now today,
Time to welcome reality night & day!
