the cognitive emergence
of reflective consciousness
during a process of mind
within living energy/matter
of a particular bodily stricture
the human-kind
that’s genetically embodied
with a predisposition
and overtime
is socially embedded
emotively
with value/feelings
being a breeding ground
for fixed judgment
the self-perception of reality
becomes somewhat distorted
sort of limited in scope
undergoing tunnel vision
where subjectivity rules
and objectivity
as to what’s perceived
suffers from illusion
not unlike seeing a photo
having a tree
with a big black hole
in its trunk
not caused by
the process of Nature
but by a dirt spot
on a house window
through which
a snapshot within time
was captured
by a Smartphone camera
