Seeing The Light



Seeing the light isn’t what I thought it would be - 
but then I’m too old an adage I guess - and view
things a bit different from the darkness we live in 

Or maybe that is where the dictum fails; as we’re 
quite capable of seeing in their dark, why are we  
even a part of that stipulation of a blind bondage 

Then the light dawned, - hey, it’s what they make 
you believe; there is this ‘unseen’ hegemony who 
rule what is the going ‘reality’, and thus you’ll see 

According to their fabrication; they’ll claim its the 
existential corporeality of a ‘physical quiddity’ we 
all live in - like it or lump it - and all in their words 

Which is where I demur; & I set about lighting the 
light t’ illuminate where these denizens of dictum 
hide in full view as the me and you we’ve trusted 

And the sight isn’t a sinecure of realisation - they 
cluster about fireplaces of industries sanctified in 
the ages gone by - & we’ve stayed in their light…
