Some People Think

Thomas Edison is an evil man.
There’s too much on his plate.

They hold these truths to be self evident.
Man is the measure of all things.

The material in the river has changed.
They want simple behavior and are rude.

They suppose science made a discovery.
It’s great evidence that souls are sacred.

We used to think our hearts were in our heads.
Saying words like, not the god’s again.

Socrates is going to die. It’s the power of his argument.
We have a sudden regression when our bodies kick in.
