Echo Chambers

("Outside Looking In Merit Badge" - MB #40, 2011, original oil)

Echo Chambers

'Everybody’s talkin’ at me
I don’t hear a word they’re saying
Only the echos of my mind….'
And so it is, and so it goes.

Everyone in their own worlds
Safe and secure within the confines
Of confirmation biases
Building castles made of sand.

Meanwhile the tide swells,
Waves come as they always have,
And always will, as everything we believe in
And hold dear will be washed away.

And still we dream
Secure in the folds of our ignorance
Of the rightness of our cause
Whatever it may be.

In interest, I put your poem through the syllable counter, and with a bit of tweaking you would have yourself a nice sonnet there, nice work . . .
