Trying to persuade my mind
is a little strange
I just can’t convince myself
that it’s all real!

But.....
then again as you look at that sun
(and hurt your eyes.....oops)
you realize that he might not believe either

Refocusing.....
come back into the house
and breath the intoxicating potpourri
and for one moment
you have convinced your
cynical mind
that it really smelled quite good
there
that’s enough for me
