Clarity

by Michael Ward

There comes a moment when we realize that as much as we seek it... clarity doesn’t serve us. We wear our illusions of who we are like an expensive suit. The acknowledgment of ourselves outside of our mind would render us... unfashionable. The demons of clarity have attacked me from all angles... signaling the beginning of an all-out assault on my sense of what is sane and what is surreal. What passed for sanity no longer applies. The surreal becomes the sane.
