R is for Reality, Rarity, Rhapsody

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality.

- 'Bohemian Rhapsody' 1975 - Queen - Freddie Mercury (1946-1991) here

Today started foggy and stayed that way. This is singularly unusual. Rare - even more so as the second day of fog in less than a week. I am now thinking about clarity, reality and the blur created by fog, filters and then the perspective of memories and suddenly I cant get Bohemian Rhapsody out of my mind. Epic*.
Only realised right now that it is 23 years since Freddie Mercury died.
