Last Split Second Poem by Jilted BUTTERFLY

Last Split Second



Sometimes in the heat of despair
we lost sight of perspective
It bends and curves and distorts
Like light round a black hole
and what we think of as truth is wildy out of proportion
yes the grains of truth are there running through the narrow waist of our preception
but each individual speck is not the beach, the beach is more than grains of sand

is this your last split second? will you spend it looking at a grain of sand or at the beach?

Perspective - a precious thing. Liking the beach analogy, like not seeing the wood for the trees, but better!
