Something Amiss

"I feel ill at ease with that little word 'we.'
No man is at one with another, you see.
Behind all agreement lies something amiss.
All seeming accord cloaks a lurking abyss."
- Albert Einstein

I always wonder when I'm speaking to someone, "Are they saying what I'm hearing, or something completely different." It's like the question of color. No one knows if the color I perceive as red looks like what I think blue is in your eyes. We could all have the same favorite color and not know it. The abyss is the knowledge lost between your mind and mine.
