This conversation
is leading nowhere
and I know
you would swear
you knew
what you saw
you were there
before
I was

but
you read too much
into what was before your eyes
you added something
and you subtracted something
and now you are imagining
that nothing
was really a thing
something
concocted
because
you wanted
that nothing
to be happening
to meet your desiring?

I was there
not at the same time
but everything
I saw
was no different
from what you believed
you saw

the mind is tricky
we have to mind the mind
grasp reality as it is
and leave illusion behind
