Can We Get To That
CAN WE GET TO THAT…
Unspoken thoughts of truism
Pretending as we practise altruism
Why do we do what we do
Why say what we say
Is it for ourselves or
Another’s bouquet
In our fallen little paradigms
Do we feel consuming obliges
To make others worlds completed
When ours is sadly depleted
Can we get to that…???
Point of self recognition
Complete in our own cognition?
The battle of obligation
Vs. our self preservation
This is our earthly demise
We live in constant
Compromise
