Some Important Questions

Mental Journey
Why does it have to be
That everyone in government always lies?
Or so it’s told to you and me
At every election by each side.

Why do so many people have to fight
Over resources, when our science
Has ways to grow food and clean water
Anywhere and anytime day or night?

Why does coming together as one human race
With one set of laws governing this place
Mean sacrificing the security and safety
Of what we have already built?

Why do so many, so easily believe
That their way has to be the best;
That it is important to dominate
And to destroy all the rest?

And why is someone who sees answers
So completely unable to succeed
In getting anyone to believe?

Mental Journey

I am on a journey of the mind. Contemplating the universe on every scale, and doing a complete introspective exploration. I may never be a literary academic, but I share my humble thoughts in hope that they may inspire others.
