An opinion given
Chaos derived
How did a view become translated into something completely different?

What transpired from saying a statement to making nonsense?
What is it?
How can plainness be interpreted as anything else?

How does a plain view get turned into general madness?
The person hearing must have changed it
Change occurred due to prejudice

I enjoyed this peice, very original. wish i'd thought of it, there is a huge leap in the last line - a question of whether it's too big - i feel. I almost wish I knew what you were writing about!

Thanks for the feedback. It's basically about a moment. The kind of moment where the first person gives an opinion and the second person makes their own prejudiced interpretation which does not correlate with the opinion given. Whether it's spontaneous or otherwise, I leave open to interpretation.
