No Escape From Reality Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Traveling across the world in my mind, never being
tired or faltering along the way.

Seeing sights of the world encased on a photographic
screen in memories from every experience and detail.

Specific and articulate moments describing who I am
in many poems - an entire being.

No escape from reality as I have to live it daily,
being indelibly placed on photographic screens, unable
to hide from it's particular images and memories.

A blessing and a curse both at the same time, yet
enjoying it with heart, mind and soul, a joy that I
carry with me all the days of my life.
