Who are we to question, that…
which seems destined via the cause effects
As the dreams of futures past give way
to variations in the flow of ever changing chains
of combined/fractions of elemental factors...
Seeming variable random circumstances…
Looking through the window of the train of life
Those such as us endowed with light…
Experience as present
Now and then, gaze upon as mirrors…
Looking at ourselves rather, an image we project
As conditions now reflect /determined people
Positioned with the security of the collective
Identities protected in windows of opportunity,
We call communities…
led by those who feed upon the needs
of those affected by their tools
Those, often fooled by senseless rules
Which pass for governance…
Blended in… with genuine efforts
to achieve common sense…
in a matrix/intended to
Complement/supplement tools
which form a prism for visions,
which provide a way across/connect the rules,
bylaws in our kaleidoscopic view of a contribution
to some sense of stability as seen through the haze
of accomplishment of the illusion… of society,
while we/others in our fulfillment of our adoptive roles…
Do our best to provide some sense of balance,
In effort to attain a mood of happiness
To those still unaware/while in our care
As babes, innocent… we dance and sing
Trading up to our familiar roles…
In prayers which represent our attitudes
Of ideals we adopt to strategies we employ
Taking defensive measures to defend
Against those whose interference
Rises beyond mere competition
Into the realm …of an evil
We resist, when we are able…
Employing protective shields
A vast array of wisdom, gleaned from
Many observations of our daily choices
…ancestral voices, myriad sources, ideals
Of ancient visions/a common sense…
With accumulated wealth of knowledge
Perhaps attaining Wisdom, if not…
Intelligent… spirituality
