Denial Is An Opiate

by

Reality weighs heavy on so many minds

Exponentially increasing paranoia

Escaping into comfortable fantasies where atrocities and uncomfortable truths don’t exist

Downplaying obscure narratives

That can crush someone’s worldview

It doesn’t matter if one believes in a higher power or not

Since anyone can get strung out on saccharine lies

There’s an illusion of an absolutely safe capsule, but one risks being stuck there for eons

Proving Alexander Pushkin right a thousandfold

  1. Hey, I’m digging your poetry!

    I apologize for taking a long time to reply to your comments on my posts; I transferred all of my reviews over this month, so I’m still new to knowing how to check my comments.

    I hope you have a nice day. 😄
