Poem Artwork

The thief and the murderer follow nature just as much as the
philanthropist. ~T.H. Huxley, "Evolution and Ethics," 1893



DYSFUNCTIONAL-YET-DIVINE

Who is Loud? Who is Proud?
Who stands silent, with spirt bowed?
Who has flight? Who breaks wind?
Who roams the seas, with dorsal fin?

Who can see, with clarity?
Ironic irregularities?
Who is strong, who belongs?
They All Pretend To Play Along!

Who is tame, and without blame?
Who breaks the rules of every game?
Who has the grace, of saving face
As corruption fouls our breathing space?

We feel distinctive and unique
Yet harbor thoughts, we'd DARE NOT speak
We absorb more, then we let out
Enraged our inner spirts.....SHOUT

The yin and yang of inner mind
Can balance us or intertwine
So theres a chance for clarity
Past vanities, vulgarities

Who can change, the scheme of things?
Who can soar, without wings?
A heart thats pure, a heart thats cold
God made us all .......from the same mold
