I Think About

I think about a lot of things. I think about why the young and innocent die How a mother could walk out and watch her children cry Or why bad things happen to those who try. I think about the economy and where it is heading. I think about the poor people who were discriminated against. And about all the men and women who are fighting for our freedom. If I did not think about all this stuff… Then who would I be? lonely and empty What would I think about? Chocolate chip cookies?
