Maybe I'm not a real poet
then who should be my examiner?
maybe I am not real
couldn't this be all but fantasy..
as schizoids profess an urgent fancy
while we celebrate a famous birth
or support those who do
we witness a changed world order.

Good I live on this side of the globe
inheritor of a many coloured robe
good to come after Edison and his inventions
yet global designs disregard local retentions..
but I may not be a real soothsayer
never witnessed answers to prayers
I may not be real..just an ideal fool
who bides his time on a local bar stool
with the thought that if it is all fantasy
and there is a greater conciousness
there is probably nothing real to fathom
might just as well be a phantom
a phantom of the opera, yes
n'er to reveal secrets of conquests
acquainted with the clock of a garden pest..

For you see we are all operated from up above
as if a god has handled us through a glove
and we are not coherent enough to know what's real
but run around as if the planet is ours to steal...

How extremely beautiful this is. Your poem flows with pure emotion.
May the passion ever flow through your pen.

I don't know about you but I am VERY real...at least to me. A very wise write. Write on

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown

You know the answer
more times than not.
I hope you are having a good holiday, Sir...
and that the New Year will bring forth
many great tidings...
