Physical vs. Mental Time: Time Lost in Space and Time
A poem

Existing in two realms,
mental and physical, they coexist.
The first, a sprawling expanse of hours, days, months, years, decades;
the second, a fleeting moment tied to our daily lives.
When we switch between them,
it feels like entering another dimension.
Subconscious thought writes books,
and it can also trip us up,
leading to depression, just as slow thinking can.
On the other pole,
fast, conscious, anxious thinking and vital decisions act,
they both battle for existence,
the only one complete - writing life,
where conscious and subconscious blend harmoniously,
complementing each other on this hard path to success.
It's not visible yet, and no one seems to want it.
Some, even writers,
refuse to read my books, having already announced it.
They use elaborate justifications born of their own despair.
Others simply can't believe a human mind conceived it.
They have been unaware of their own thoughts throughout the years.
They received no instruction regarding proper thought processes,
so they stumble around in the dark,
chasing the same things as everyone else
and then forcing their views on others.
If anyone dares to disagree, they just lash out,
spitting venom and hate.
The rules of this game have changed,
the mirror is now pointed at them.
Ultimately, nobody designated to attend arrived
and will ever read it anyway.
