Curiosity
Curiostity killed the cat, I know,
but I want to learn and learn and learn,
I want to be able to tell the difference
between a trivial change,
I want to be able to understand
why things are and why they will be,
I want to know how things work and how they run,
I want to know which way the birds will fly,
I want to know how they flap their wings,
I want to know what they say when they
honk at the one next to them.
I want to know, but who can tell me?
