So Many Questions

Time stands still for nothing
whereas we all apprehend something,
questions surround these perceptions,
answers measure every assertion;
opinion defines your protest.

Are you liberal?...the hour is here.
Are you conservative?...the hour is near.

They say-one godless the other backward!

Why do you listen?
Is it time for coalition?

Cooperation with less bickering
or watch the glimmer of hope flickering.

Dance to the rhythm 
create a middle
complete the mission
destroy this schism.

Oh but how we generalize
cry and howl with eyes that lie.
So many questions but so little time.
