Cultural fantasy.

A skeptical façade; for cultural appearances.

Most if not all of us desire wealth, power, ***, love, and understanding.

we are often fantasists as regards our current reality.

Ironically those of us that openly desire the improbable, are labelled dreamers;

Yet those clinging to a collective cultural reality, are often deemed level headed.

In short!
Our cerebral lives are a fantasy, as is our collective culture, and our cultural beliefs.

We are just flesh, passing through the landscape for a short time, before we are dead and gone; and in just three generations, people will know little or nothing about our existence.
