Shh. Will you please close your mouth?
If you do, you might be able to hear them.
Those things traveling through the world.
However, we humans never listen
We never close our eyes to our known world
So, we can see what is really there.
No one ever looks for what is really there.
We just close our minds like a bad book.
But I know that we can all see the truth.
We are not blind like we act.
We have eyes that can see many things
But we make a choice not to look.
Now you are talking to damn much
So much is happening around you
And you are missing it all with your jabbering
And your blind eyes.
So shut your mouth and stop looking at the normal.
Look at something you have ignored before
And see what’s really happening in the world.

Right on!
"Stop looking at the normal"
is an interesting way to put it.
Nice job. |

Yes, good job. I liked this peom. People choose to avoid the truth because the truth can be painful. They accept the absurd over the logical, because the absurd offers the blissness of ignorance. The absurd offers a fairy tale ending. They see the truth, but they refuse to accept it, because it might cause them some discomfort.... oh poor babies!
Anyways, well done. |
