Conditional caring
Have we put so many conditions on our
interactions with others,
Even with our mothers,
To reach a point where no kind of caring,
will be unconditional,
And robots will be the only significant others,
That with our conditions have no bothers.
For those who were taught that the only type of caring,
If one wants to be sharing,
Instead of waring,
Everyday becomes harder to get others,
To understand our helpful offers,
Come without conditions,
Or expectations
Except unconditional acceptance,
Of an offer made out of a caring stance,
That encourages them to dance.
As long as there are those of us around,
Still above ground,
Who don't attach conditions on caring,
There will still be opportunities,
To experience the realities,
Of enjoying,
Sharing in an environment,
That puts no conditions on caring,
Because the alternative can ever only be
a lot more waring.
