Ruminations

Is it wrong to sit

And wonder and stare

Til your mind has a fit

And your morals are air?

Is it wrong to ask

And ponder all day

If God is a mask

Or a savior to stay?

Is it that hard to think

For one's own true self,

Rather drink from the water

Atop Society's Answer Shelf?

Is it that hard to feel

Emotions of your own

Instead of hide in a meal

Til your spirit is blown?

Is it that hard to stand

Out in front of a crowd

And shout thoughts to the land -

Letting your mind be loud?

It depends on dependence

That you may hold dear.

It depends on your own mind

Which you may not hear.
