The Certain Uncertainty Of Reality Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Reality may intersect
Forming islands of sanity
But most of us live in our own realities
Far away from each other
We encircle our hearts with materialism
Abandoning our neighbours
We hug each other inside our religions
Deserting the poor and vulnerable
We are scattered on the perimeter of this reality
Not knowing the whereabouts of our fellow human beings
We are dispersed inside the labyrinth of our sanity
Forgetting to check on each other's insanity
Insanity is now classified in the halls of medical science
And the insane are bundled together
In the hands of mental institutions
It is not fair to define reality
When the so called reality
Is full of uncertainty
And different people
Spend most of their lives
Buried in uncertainties
The certain uncertainty of reality
A question we should all ponder
And come up with a better definition of reality
Reality is probably non-existent
It is common to agree to disagree
Because time is not on the side of reality
And space is not governed by this reality
So we are all unreal under the uncertainty of this reality
