Poem #9: The Question Why
#9 of Poetry
A poem about critical thinking in regards to the why of life, and all its contradictions.
The Question Why
Love has no love
Death has no end
Life is not living
Honesty isn't truth
Justice is unfair
Nature is civilized
Organized into chaos
Sanity drives the insane
Body fueled by mind
To befriend an enemy
Pay the cost for freedom
Kindness is its own cruelty
Sight is blind
Believing in doubt
Safety in paranoia
Darkness among the light
Dream of nightmares
Fall into moonrise
Rise with the sunset
Mysteriously clear
Reveal the unveiled
Confine the well-known
But let the ever-present
Question be; Let it remain
As Why?
