Between what
Something seems to be
And what it actually is,
The difference is too real
In a world crowded with
Masked entities
But let’s not forget
We are all players,
Actors and actresses,
Thespians and clowns and
fools
In a grand and everlasting
theatre,
Where the reality becomes
Poignant, biting,
unbearable, too,
When someone thinking of
Some other person or thing
As a victim of differential
reality,
Fails to realize that
He/she is not immune to it
Himself/herself’
