Wheel of Imposition

Rejecting constraints of perception

By William CrumpPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

A wheel of imposition

Rolling over authentic experience

Forced constraints

Organized for what?

Does red and blue make royalty?

Does blue and yellow make grass?

Adam named the animals

Who named the colors?

Who dictates these

The rules of our perceptions?

Cones and rods

Electromagnetic spectrum

Impressions in flesh

Neuron and synapse

See and respond

Perceive and change

Each set unique

Each set true

Who benefits from this

Wheel of imposition?

How does it aid

The genuine experience?

I am blind to the colors

As seen by others

I have my own truth

Unintentionally manifest

I cannot feel a color wheel

And I will not try
