75PoWriMo - XVII

the fragile nature of reality



conditioned by the fiction
of the all-pervasive themes
that the media try to feed you
in repeated tropic scenes
there's a doubt that's breaking out
over how everything seems
i spend hours thinking how as
sure as i am i exist
i could peel away, revealing
something realer i had missed
it feels as though the set-up's over
and i'm waiting for the twist
