The folly of "certain" belief
bias echoes
ripple en masse(ive) waves
[mis]take[s]
misconceptions
imbue assumption
coloring distinct lines
in an artistry
of err
shading misconstrual
crafted through
a tilted lens
A painting, distorted
warped into
one's certain—
certainty
warbles of
suppose(d) surrealism
implant
ingrain
demand
up is down
right is left
cold is hot
truth is lying
hate is love
these echoes
deny
in hopes—
that even one,
believe

My #Nopoo for today.(slightly edited)
Thoughts and various ideas around blasts of information blanketing and permeating; how it can (and often is) consumed and processed. Where sometimes, particular information is accepted without question as 'gospel'— when that couldn't be further from the truth....
Highlighting the dichotomy of truth vs propaganda and how art can infuse a sort of illumination...

The hate that hate produce, those raise in the darkness choosing bred and raise in the darkness. Although they have been shown truth and the light, their hearts have been harden and there is no turning back except for annihilation. The cleansing is beginning can't you feel the darken hatred crawling that face of the planet. This is really tight work here Lady

It's like the shivers you get that rile you awake from a nightmare.....Feelings of impending possibility..... Perhaps darkness..... Unless we're vigilant about reflecting the light.
Awesome and very emotionally felt comments, Me...Thanks for listening and leaving me your thoughts and generous insights...
Your 'really tight' always makes me feel like I've hit upon what it was I was hoping for!!

Dearest, Lady Blue
You speak truth in this beautifully written erudite piece. I love the phrasing andf powerful message of these two passages,
"misconceptions
imbue assumption"
"shading misconstrual
crafted through
a tilted lens "
Funny, the "tilted lens" reminds me of the old Batman TV series when the villains were always shot with a tilted lens.
Bravissima, captivating goddess Blue 🐻💕🐰

I've been reading Ursula K Le Guin lately. Through fantasy, she uses parallel and contrasting absurdities to grant perspective to the absurdities that we take for granted. I'm reminded of the frog that boils slowly without resistance as the temperature gradually rises. You have an fascinating array of dimensions and this was intriguing.

Hey there Daniel :)
I often think of that frog metaphor, gradually warming up, not realizing he's slowing cooking and eventually becoming the meal, itself. I see that, read it and feel examples of that, daily. I think situational awareness, as well as ideological awareness, blinds people with this ferocity that they've chosen to shamefully indulge. Understanding one's own inherent biases, is paramount. Knowing that and fully understanding that and how it can become an overindulged, ingrained and ultimately harmful construct. (in moderation sometimes maybe useful, I known it's not all potentially bad 24/7 but more likely harmful when the beast is continually fed, imo... ) Being severely cognizant to keep a mind open, is of the upmost importance ....Allowing thoughts to flow free and where growth is always front and center.
It's the "ostriches that sticks their head in the sand" Those fkr's that absolutely infuriate and drive me crazy!!!... I mean they're seemingly never willing to listen to shite!!!.... Unyielding and unforgiving it's... such a bad quality.
Thanks for the lovely sentiments, my friend.
It means a lot to me that you can see and feel my varied layers / dimensions. I'm completely humbled, appreciative and deeply grateful - 🙏🏻
Such a lovely pleasure seeing you on my page! 🦋
Please visit often.... I thoroughly thoroughly enjoy it !

Well said and I appreciate your perspective here. It's a bit of a challenge for me to be on site these days, as I prefer to take the time to read and respond on my laptop, which requires me to be in a seated position and my hip flexor has been a persistent injury since I was struck.
I've friends with different and polarized political views, religious views, and I wonder about the various facets of such positions. It's hard to discuss without coming off judgmental, so I mostly just stay silent, change the subject, etc. I guess the need for certainty plays into it, a lot of displaced emotion from unresolved situations, circumlocuted . Idk. Ultimately, we just have to do our best, hold to the intent to be peaceful and aware.

Great piece Blue. Especially in today's times whether it's about politics or constant scams, being aware and in tune with our senses has to be even more critical.
Nicely done.
