Reflection
Ecclesiastes 7:3-4
New English Translation
3 Sorrow is better than laughter,
because sober reflection is good for the heart.
4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning,
but the heart of fools is in the house of merrymaking.
Moments and flashes of reality covering the screen
1st impressions sinking into the depth of the inner man
Life is fading slowly being prepared for unwanted dreams
What is left to understand if the perception runs out of hand?
News always involves mankind through someone’s opinion
Excitement or depression molded solidly in one’s thought
Amazing that emotion has been interwoven in a selected mission
With mind-boggling impressions out of the environment caught
Later the perception of common sense departed rather slowly
Taken by the hand to be placed and dressed up in the shadow
What if the use of this exercise has been paid for by the dowry?
By uninterrupted confusion by reason which is way too shallow?
Maybe circular wavelengths are slowly choking
Common sense to death in an accepted motion
Humanity led in ways to where most are croaking
In its fake contentment and their blinded devotion
“Too soon and too late” are dressed up for a party
Camouflaged as reality dancing slowly on the waves
As the storms of life in the lives of the ones “past” forty
Are setting the direction of the fearful and the brave
