Poem- “Absolute Life”

“Absolute Life”

You claim to have experience for life.
You’ve forgotten most things experienced in your life.
Most of your life can’t actually be seen or remembered.
The human mind only perceives just so much.
And, you claim to have “experience”.
But you’ve forgotten most of everything in your life!
We can even forget to forget.
Now this may sound like a lot of worrying.
It isn’t to me so much.
“Memory would make a very poor time machine”- I’ve said that before.
Why?
Because memory isn’t reality.
It’s sort of like a drunken state of mind.
Usually, we’re pretending to have absolute experience.
Honestly it’s quite healthy to be in a little ignorance.
Having too much attention paid can paralyze you.
Our minds aren’t clocks, computers, or calculators with the greatest neutrality.
We kind of see things and wish to believe.
Confidence can be arrogance because it’s an assumption on unlimited goals.
People may assume to be, but they may not actually be.
Dreams are usually quick and nonsensical.
Of course, memory is a flashing image of absolution.
True, absolute life has all the images for whoever exists in it.
We eat, sleep, and do; however, human beings aren’t absolute recordings of life.
We miss out on most imagery.
Life can go beyond the grave.
Guys don’t see the whole picture.
In fact, the whole picture isn’t the whole world.
The whole world isn’t the whole universe.
The universe, even, isn’t the whole existence.
Eternal matters let us keep going on.
“I remember everything.”
No, you don’t.
That’s because the human mind isn’t everything.
Really, if the human mind was everything, surprises wouldn’t exist for us.
Ideas seem to come to us both from within and from without.
But, alas, we claim to have experience in life.
