5AM philosophy (aka Universe Laughs at Humanity)

Exhaustion creeps
through your brain-
star-burst thoughts-
expand and explode-
dispersing through
awakened consciousness-
as your body shuts down.

Blurred line-
fantasy or a dream?
Reality?
What is that?
The world as we know it-
looks different at 5 AM.

Nothing is a dream-
and yet-
reality is a fallacy-
the dream-
becomes reality.

Everywhere and nowhere-
left is right-
right is left-
Nothing's true-
and nothing's false-
a new world order
takes shape-
in the space between-
your early morning
thoughts-

They call reality-
normality-
Well-
Normality's-
a cosmic joke.
