Philosophical Poetry Week: Metaphysical Monday

Who are we and where are we going?
Knowledge flows like silence blowing
Its echoes across the world.

Possibilities are infinite within a life,
From cooking to killing is only a knife
Away, and so is our world.

Reach for the stars that you are,
having the potential for being far
beyond what is the world.

We exist, or do we? Broken reams
Of mind over matter filter dreams
Into the corporeal world.

Break the kaleidoscope of change
Which holds thought within range,
And exist within the waiting world.

Unfurl.
