Poetry

Reality

Written by Jacob Ibrag

Make me uncomfortable,

wreck my safe space. Break

my perfect nature, show me

how to live. Sheltered by

television dreams. Tear it

all down, wrap me around

reality. I want to be free.

    Another amazing piece, Jacob! I love the beginning with discomfort and ending with freedom…so many layers in that from birth to death.

    How often are we deceived by the illusion offered by the media. We must not dwell in the cave with all its shadows. We must go forth into the light and see the truth for what it is and not take what others say as truth.

    I love this. Especially the line “Sheltered by television dreams.” I feel like there’s so much truth in this for so many people.
