View the …..



View the …..

Looking up at the sky thinking of billions of eyes
As from afar in space, our world seems a peaceful place
But the approach from without soon jars your face
An atmosphere suddenly punches, heats and will raze your pace

Then falling without arms outstretched to arrest your state
Pretty reality begins to dissipate and the mind realizes it will be late
Without preparation ugliness always breaks through first
Such as when you’re stuck and the scenery becomes the land of thirst

Do we laugh or cry, or as in reality do both then try?
Unique to humanity is the unrelenting mind of knowing it can die
No cynicism but is that the foundation of sublime human nature?
Questions are easy but inconsequential as actions count at the critical juncture

The equation to do no harm, perhaps help the world is in a book
Evidently rejected by most for just listen and look
Death and destruction of the good
But humanity individually, where sublime resides, is the only rook
