We are at that moment in the film
where the protagonist has an epiphany
that not all he knew was as it seems.
The fabric of story torn at the seams
as he freefalls to the climax, a simile
for greater pursuits, pushed out on a limb.
Earlier at the rising point in the story
a hymn sung by a choir led us to believe
in hope for our future and our dreams
but that was all a lie. Augmented by
the controllers and the hive
that led us to prize a fake reality.
What If we erase one pixel in the game? Throw
away our smart phones. Reset, in a real way
our human cache. Resolve, remake, retake our story.
