 I can pillage, burn and destroy,

At the whim of my mind.

We are but savages controlled

By the insights of our thinking.

 

Who can question ancient thoughts,

If they have outlasted time.

Who is the judge, so proper,

To declare the idiocey contained within.

 

I for one, must step aside

And not try to judge what happened.

Time has a way of miscalculating

The unknown minds of ancient men.

"ancient thoughts" and "ancient men"! Interesting concept, George! Have we changed that much? Perhaps our weapons of choice have. This poem gets the wheels spinning!

Love ya!

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
