The Holographic

sterile on the surface

blurred on the periphery 

tense, pretension

alien like efficiency, 

the light circling 

the holographic 

takes exactly 24 hours 

to reach its end point 

and then instantly restarts,

the empathic can’t help

but feel the illusion,

our life is what science 

calls “dreams”

our nightmare is what

the dictionary calls “awake”

8.3 billion people 

exist in the 

holographic state

with no way out
