Cognitive Realities

I see an old lady, with pieces fitting like puzzles


Different materials pieced together like glue


I see a creative lady with energy that glew


Materialistic items and newspaper titles


To someone else this could be they’re idol

 

Every clipping tells a story


You can see every tale in her eyes, her glory


Her beauty shot out of the page like a rocket


As fast as one's eye can savor


But one bad thing about it, her beauty is as thin as paper


But can we tell if it's real?


Maybe I made it up?


Cognitive realities can be realities one’s mind has made up


I could be lying a lot, not at all, or just a smudge


Well that just leaves you to be the judge.

The picture that I saw of a collage of pictures on the internet inspired me to do this poem. Also the thought of having diffrent realities in diffrent mindsets was really cool to me also.
