Defense Mechanism

this moment is real.
why is it so hard to remember that? my mind just shuffles through each moment never separating reality from.... the rest
maybe dreaming is a defense mechanism.
for if we were in constant realization of reality then maybe we would never have built this world. or maybe once it would have been built- (consume, waste, consume, waste)- we would have gone insane with out our dreams.
instead we are inside- isolated from the sounds of the wind. building barriers day after day. just barely grasping the edge of our sanity by allowing ourselves to dream- to wonder off away from this isolation.
maybe the one is always stopping us from reaching the other. reality to dream, dream to reality. always stuck in the middle.
