Analysis of Realm of Insanity
Tangible visions caught as in a spider’s web,
Struggling to break free of confinement.
They don’t understand.
Probed and prodded, poked and pricked,
Trying to convert genius to mediocrity.
Reality is nothing but a twisted state of
limited perception.
Why can’t they see?
Did they forget insanity discovered that the
earth was round, or that man could reach the moon?
Immobilized by a white jacket and padded room,
A pet peeve, but never a restraint,
The message will leave this oracle, and the visions
will fly free.
