The illusion of reality



The illusion of reality. What is real? We assume the glass of water we drink is water. We are in public we are walking. But if you were screaming yelling  waving a knife.  We are alone in life so we could murder a person and not know we did it. We are alone our brains can give false information. We assume what we are safe in our house. But false information standing in the rain. The poem in front of you is it sane or crazy. Are you sure you're sitting? The illusion of reality?
