Embrace this illusion,
Or face isolation
Every decision is an intersection,
roll the window down,
See the attractions hear the sounds ,
Smile.
You will always have destinations.....
Some are for a long time .......
Others are for a little while ........
All are temporary,
The matrix of this existence,
One singular truth persists,
Whithout which nothing could exist ....
And that is
One thing that will never change ,
Nothing will ever stay the same .....
I stared for what seemed to be an eternity,
(With the same perplexed look
When I stare at my orange juice
Because it said concentrate.)
And finnally said slowly with a beurg ening smirk.
"I d o n t k n o w......"
My teacher said of course you don't.......
I still got an A......for the class ....
I sometimes worry ,.
What about the kids who don't know how to play the game ....
What we learn isn't always necessary,
What is necessary isn't taught
What is taught is out of necessity,
Which stems from greed ...
Subliminally we are geared
Generate revenue ,
Up upon the horizon is the the golden carrot .
You can almost touch ...
Not quite ..!
You can float down a snow melt trickle ,
Growing into a beautifull mountain stream.
Through the brooks ,into rivers ,
To the ocean ....
See everything there is to see .
Or you can put your foot down
And resist change ,. . As you sink ....
You will be covered in silt ....
There you will stay
Eventually you will be silent and still .
