On Being

On Being Being alive is pretty simple Knowing you are alive is not Women cry outside Men cry inside To know you are alive you should laugh and cry each day Whether it shows or not Not for survival but to feel Feeling is the enzyme, the fuel, the energy Knowledge feeds life, adds to life, adds to pleasure and to pain Ignorance does not Fill your minds as if they’re wallets With the currency of being We will breath today Perhaps tomorrow That will not make us smarter Hug each other or your child I see a smile on its way
