To Just See.
Can you see without
making a judgement?
Is that a man sleeping
on the ground
or
could it only be a
worthless bum?
Can you get past your
fears?
Is that a foreign born
family
or
are they a threat to
your life and livelihood?
Can you get past what
you want?
Is that a yellowish,
shiny metal
or
is it a source of wealth
and power?
Can you get past what you've
been told?
Is it true that life is predestined,
that things are going to happen one way and that's it,
or
is it true that you are the
master of your own destiny and your entire life is up to you,
or
is it true that there is no
way you can answer either one of those for sure and that your only
option is to do the best you can at all times?
or
Are you wasting your time wondering
about this stuff when there is work to be done?
Can you see past the background,
past the busyness, past the static?
Can you get past the gossip
or
do you let it distract you from
looking at your own life,
or
are you wondering how a bunch
of little pictures cut out from a photo of someone's overgrown lawn
can make it hard to see white words,
or
are you already cutting up the
idiots who spent valuable time on some computer creating this,
or
are you ready to look around,
see,
and make things as right as
circumstances and your own knowledge will let you?
