I can tell you of things I have seen
but only of how I percieved them
not in the whole truth of the scene
but only from my biased view
of events that occured

I always seem to think that I am different
but walk along the same paths
drink from the same water fountains
look at the same world, but only it is
done by my body and mind

There is a belief by some
that if they were to die, then
everything around would cease to exist
but that is foolish, unless you consider it
from their point of view

true true true... interesting, because i have a poem in the works on a similar theme and it was good to get someone else's point of view while i'm busy trying to write it...

yeah, and also... if you are in a forest and a tree falls and you are deaf, did it really fall? lol... no WAIT! how does that go... i know! if there is one hand clapping in a forest without any trees, did the clapping make any noise? no... WAIT! that's not it... oh phooey! i can't remember....

hehe

thanks for a great read, james!

actually doreen My version of the tree falling is this

If a dog poops on the carpet

but there is no one there to spank him

is he really a bad dog?
