Wordle 413
What if you woke
in an alternative reality
Receiving a signal from the Universe
A message, like a constant
changing channel on your tv
Hearing only part of the message
Would you run for the hills?
Or would you wait, check it out
See that everything is fine,
better than before.
A simple sweet life, no trauma
No nagging parents.
They’re perfect, loving
You find you like it here.
Would you feel smug by the charm?
That has befallen you.
Would you notice some changes?
like a sharp claw on glass
Grating on your memories.
Would you realise the limit?
Of this new life
Like living in a bubble
Pick up the nearest rock
Try to break free
Realising that Sage, your wife
The love of your life
Your children are not here
When next you sleep,
Where will you wake?
