Configure/Poem Share

In our minds, we can configure almost anything

Anything, we have a personal stake in or an interest or experience.

If only our minds could transform into everyday real life existence.

I used to think,” We were what we thought…”

But here in my latter years of  life, I realize more than not,

We are more a part of what we were taught.

It gets difficult in life, let alone the many precursors and stagnates

The test is the thing we most cannot pass

If we had of already learnt it, we would have put it in our past.

I think that people should come with instructions,

Maybe caution signs at best, or a sign that says…

Because the things we don’t see first, are the one’s that take our rest.

They take our peace of mind,

That is when our mind starts to configure things

Not peaceful, joyous, illusions of happiness

But dreadful, awful, foreboding ones, in a big ol mess.

Why is that?

Why do we do that to ourselves?

I wish we had things in boxes, with which to sort through them all,

Then we could take time with each thing we had thought and think some more

And that probably is a thing my own mind has configured, in and by itself,  just like before.
