Don’t Confuse Me with the Facts

I have these preconceived
ideas
of the world
and how it works

But now and again
I come up against some
boulder, some road block that
I cannot get around

Like a bone
pulled from pudding
something that’s just not right
that doesn’t belong

Then I must choose
if I will alter my thoughts
or the world

This decision is
often harder
than you would think
