Many Questions

What is man? He is not like the ocean He does not dance to the oneness of his brothers indistinguishable from the next He is not like the forest He does not provide wealth in abundance from simply being He is not like the stars He does not bring beauty to those he will never touch Who is man? He is not like the bee his vibrations would not end life should they cease to exist He is not like the beasts He does not see himself as one that came out of the earth He is not like the fish He is not a victim of his own environment Where is man? He is not in heaven He does not live in a realm of pure bliss He is not in space He is unable to prevent suffocating others as he expands He is not in prison He is not trapped in lifeless bondage How is man? Man is like a blackhole He is always hungry but can never be sated Man is like a spaceship He is always travelling but never home Man is like an actor He is always someone but never himself Why is man?
