World's Perspective
There once was a child
questioned everything she did
her parents admonished her
for peering into
the workings of the world,
but the child
poor child
couldn't possibly understand
what did she do wrong,
and the wise old man
said to her that
t'was not her fault
for 'tis the world
who should be punished
for the fault often lies
not in the doing
but in the way we see the doing.
