Seeing
Is believing
Seeing is believing
Is this a misconception
Was it just a mask
And visual deception.
Framed within a photograph
And she was then accused of treason.
A Prima Facie case
crafted for the wrong reason
Miscarriage of justice
How often has it happened
A mistaken identity
Real or just imagined.
Jumping to conclusions
Headfirst in the deep end
A Prima Facie fallacy
mixed into the blend
Abstract ideas bend the truth.
A preconceived intention
Wandering through the mind
Reality changed my perception.
Minds misshape the images.
Intuition is far better.
I am reading between the lines
written in a letter
Exposures can evaporate
Pictures, then, are more explicit.
Real not Prima Facie
When looking in a mirror
Hopping on then propping
My mind does a double take.
I ride my bike, then turn.
In awe, for my own sake.
