I Think About
I think about a lot of things.
I think about why the young and innocent die
How a mother could walk out and watch her children cry
Or why bad things happen to those who try.
I think about the economy and where it is heading.
I think about the poor people who were discriminated against.
And about all the men and women who are fighting for our freedom.
If I did not think about all this stuff…
Then who would I be?
lonely and empty
What would I think about?
Chocolate chip cookies?
