Subversive elements rip apart
Essential truths
Rules get rolled in the back alleyways
Of a rigid mind
The terror
Reflection of the shattering of social niceties
Wasn’t real, after all
Dreamt up
Based on false assumptions
Fears and dreams
Subversive elements started to creep in
Ninja doubts
Troubled truths
Collide with a peal of bells
That are discordant and out of tune
Reflecting the cognitive dissonance
We endure
Trying to make sense of the chaos
Subverting the lies we agree to tell
Pretending that insanity is normal
Putting up with the fabrications
Untruths
Of an off-kilter world

David, brilliant. Like the cognitive dissonance quite a bit.
Thanks – it is hard to make sense of this world, some days in particular seem to be even crazier than what we’ve come to expect.
