A Dream of Reality

Endless nights of playing a game

Pleasurable fights, all the same

Arrogant fathers sending their spies

Plausible faith based on sensible lies

 

Tumble out of bed and greet regret

Stumble outside, light a cigarette

Take a drag and consider what to say

Redundant motion on a recurring day

 

With each turn I meet a well-known face

How could I not while I reside in this place

It is hard to tell if I am awake.

The line is dead that parted real and fake
