Manifest

Yes to reincarnation…I just don’t think you have to die.
We can build ourselves many times anew with a fresher lie.

A shell of deceit becomes a truth if only we would molt.
The fight for growth that carapace cracks is personal revolt.

We strive to make our falsehoods true…these cocoons that we outgrow.
Who’d believe a leggy worm who claimed the sky was his to know?

We use some credit claiming goals that are only just in sight.
The forebears of aeronautics never saw a plane in flight.

My theory is this…theories are truths that haven’t shed their lies.
 To die just shy of validation makes dreamers no less wise.
