Pray tell me,
What’s the fuss?
War or peace?
Love or hate?
Good or bad?
Right or wrong,
Happy or sad?
Success of failure?
It’s always been
Cloudy or sunny,
Calm seas,
Or fierce waves,
Warm or cold,
Windy or calm,
Black skies with stars,
Pale blue without,
Rainy or snowy
Or not,
Clean or dirty,
Or in between;
Nothing new,
Under our sun.
Just old
And retold,
Different versions;
So what’s the mystery,
Or not?
It is,
What it is,
Or not.Pray tell me,

Tell that to the person who just lost the 100 meter run by one tenth of a second. Hmmmm...
Amen!
