Some people, they like to believe
That everything has an established wisdom.
This “universal” and too commonly accepted
Arrangement has got to go.
Sometimes it’s hard to find your way
And you just want to lie down.
Flee from the effortless itinerary;
Roll your eyes at this mockery of humanity.
Countless people believe everything on the set table
They glimpse and become acquainted with.
As they advance through their upbringing,
Heaps of remote persons lie back
To let the brainwashing persist—
Particularized evolution is lost.
I say leave no stone untwisted within;
Eradicate all those cattle assurances.
Individuality ought to be strived for.
Convinced people may tell of duplicity.
They possibly will express that
You already have everything you need.
Or articulate of a stipulated
And programmed hierarchy of Natural Law.
Find your internal tranquility.
Fear of chagrin in some lustrous spirit world
Disrespects sagacity
And one’s personal journey.
such beautiful words and from one so young, incredible, please don't let your new found poetry fall to the way side as you persue your studies and your eventual career. That would be a steap dissappointment(just not yet realized) to the world. Oh, and thank you for sharing the depth, width, and height of your talent, heart and life's journey in furthering its engagement with experience. most sincerely melissa lundeen
