Reality what does it mean? It is something we create. It is our perception of the world… as we see it, as we speak it… as we feel it. OR, is it something that exists, it is there, a substance, a manifestation borne out of accidents, actions, narratives, optics, delusions and illusions?
One person’s reality, is another’s myth, delusion… other’s truth and another’s fallacy. Is it a product of our creative endeavors… A work of art… A cornucopia of vibrant, stark, sordid, beautiful colors, dyes and tints, blended to form an expression awaiting, beckoning to be perceived, interpreted, toyed with over and over again… by one and all. Like thatpicture… alive… living and breathing; hidden?? Concealed because of its ghastliness… or perhaps its truthfulness.
Reality is optics, optics, truth! And what are optics anyway? Parameters and positionalities of narratives?
What you ‘see’ hardwires your perception of reality. What you speak is how you create reality? What is reality but different clusters of dominoes… A cumbersome burden as each is filled with trinkets of propaganda, scintillating pearls of wisdom, sycophantic noise juxtaposed with voices of the sub-altern, trumpets of information laden with mal-intent, visuals of reason, spiked with indoctrination. One person’s truth, is another person’s rabble-rousing.
How does one sift out the sounds from the noise? What sieve, what sifter, what strainer is used? How is it used? How is it perceived? How is it utilized? What actually is the value? What, in reality is the utility of that filtration…. the act of separation… Wheat from husk… Where lies the value, where lies the utility, where indeed lies the benefit?
Do dominoes fall down because of triggers or that cumbersome weight of their existence? The ripple effect reverberated across the chattering sound, the militaristic uniformity… of all falling down?
Is it time for the great unraveling? The chipping away of the façade. So what… then what…? Unravel, unwrap, unfold… remove… take away… Stripping bare the core… raw, naked, relentless power: freed, unconcealed – vile, oppressive and all-devouring…
And we all fall down…
