“I
live my life in a host of stories
connected
to other people's
stories
in various ways
I
understand and identify things
by
placing them in the stories
I
tell about them and then
find
myself caught in a web
A
web so perplexed I am
unable
to tell the difference
between
reality, or not -
fragments
of the imagination?
or
fragments of real life drama?
After
careful consideration,
no
sleep, tossing and turning
my
reality includes everything
that
is and has been -
a
true story of being me”
Ronel O’Reilly
[Peanuts
says:]
I
love the way you describe the process of coming to understand
that
life is the true story of yourself. Thank you for your courtesy
in
allowing me to quote your poem here.
