why do we
wear these masks
why should we
ever actually ask
why is profit
deemed as right
why is purposeless
seemingly so wrong
lines of light
circles of black
geometry of white
all those things
we actually see
so many things
we truly need
light made us
finds us real
darkness holds us
beyond truth's zeal
why not walk
instead of run
living stitched life
work's never done
why not speak
in appealing verse
instead of bitching
rhetoric speaks worse
that intrepid bus
we always ride
scratching effort's itch
what about us
our human side
this long journey
some where further
worthy absolute you
beyond corporate me
life is song
if we want
that to be
what is wrong
with being free
that staid reflection
of what is
you and me
that brave predilection
of mind's eye
what we see
how we do
who we are
all this is
truth by far
shadow and light
madness and fright
all that sacred
what seems right
all that detectable
delectable morning delight
life long insight
why do we
dream these dreams
why should we
live philosophical schemes
how can this
simply be all
there ever is
when every ocean
exalts universal themes
when stars align
lines rimming light
circles of black
that geometric white
all those things
we actually do
so many things
we always think
as life goes
we truly see
round and round
in perfect time
let effectual light
respectfully holding us
within contextually complete
perfect universal rhyme
