A Poem questioning or outlook of life

 

How can we want
What we do not need
Until we have it?

How can we choose
What we cannot accept
Until we change it?

How can we hold
What we cannot reach
Until we drop it?

How can we keep
What we cannot repair
Until we discard it?

How do we find
What we do not seek
Until we search for it?

How do we get back
What we do not have
Until we loose it?

Kind A SLOw In The Kootenays v2.2 by RickthePoetWarrior

Has-beens and coffee get together to recreate a same old new tourist trap in a land even the First Nations don't want.
