A Collective In Pieces

We struggle to find peace in the collective 
because we're in pieces as a whole
This fragmentation is unnatural & we're
at war with the divisive
No matter how you slice it us coming together
should be the goal
The pie in the sky is a sweet dream & those
that eat are decisive
Look to your mind for the answers for in its
eye are the solutions
The confusion is by design for in disarray
we are conquered
Know that ideas design things & are the 
beginning of conclusions
Nothing exists without them for they're seeds 
of all that is fathered
Don't be bothered by appearances as many
of those are illusions
I allude to this for a reason because many are
easy to deceive
Every piece is important to the pattern in a 
world that was built on collusion
The puzzling truth is playing out but many
are reluctant to concede

Hello Jasen, I really liked how you unravel the complexities of our collective existence. Each word is a thread weaving through the fabric of societal fragmentation to seek unity amidst division. Your insightful perspective is that the puzzle of humanity is incomplete without every piece, and only by coming together can we unlock the true potential of our shared journey. - Blessings, Daniel
