Hooked On A Habit Poem by Ragy Sandid

Just like children
To grow up a witness
To a spirit kindred
Developing essence

A walk in the park
Or the side of lake
A sparkle in the dark
The junk you rake

Life becomes that brick
With all bricks on top
That moment one can pick
And then life never stops

Then reality suddenly slows
And decides to change the set
Remove the river where once it flowed
Those who sailed it, sail to a sunset

Then eyes only see the vision
Of what was once to be the rest
One never thought one day it'll be a division
And see reality and memory so clearly messed

And so some tell the young the story
They like it but the change is wrapped
An idiot's tale full of sound and fury?
Or someone's soul, before leaving, in time trapped?
