Demons to so many are simply Metaphors
Symbols of our darker side.
A rational mind may discern What is real
Even with spectres seen and Voices heard.
Seemingly real what our senses Feel
We can swear that we heard a Disembodied voice
Or saw a ghost or spirit.
But they may be an illusion--
Our eyes and ears do play
Tricks on our minds
Like hysterical blindness being All in the head.
As in dreams by night
Perhaps these things
Are conscious dreams by day--
Our minds trying to tell us Something
In its own symbolic and abstract Way.
Just as real as physical symptoms
Deeply rooted in the mind.
It has been said that your Perception is your reality.
If so, these things are then your Personal reality.
These things may be real
But only to you
Or whoever is in your headspace
Or our collective headspace
Where our senses peak.
Your reality or your orientation Is defined
By what you focus on
And what you look through
Day after day.
You truly are what you eat.
Are the negative effects of what You see
Compounded by further Distorted perception?
Are you focusing on something through
<A spider-web-cracked
Window?
<A spider’s web built across
Your Window?
<A fogged-up or frosted
Window?
<A coloured or tinted
Window?
<A ***** smudged window?
<A window partially or
Totally obscured
By bushes or trees?
<A window at night where
What you
See beyond the window
Is superimposed with
Your own reflection and
That of objects and lights
That are behind you in
The room?
<A window with the blinds
Closed?
Or
<Are you myopically looking
Through what is just
A picture of a window
Hanging on
Your wall?
~
Whatever windows we peer Through
Or whenever we enter
Humankind’s collective and Connected
Head-space
We see and hear these demons And spectres
Dancing through the dark empty Rooms
And hallways of mind
Waiting for the right time
To bring the party to the light of Day
Where they will forever stay
Since we have been inviting Them
And have been preparing the Way for them
For a very
Long time.
