My mind plays mind games with me
My thinking never seems to leave me
My knowledge is not adequate enough
My arguments have an edge so rough
I sometimes cannot understand
Why people often rave and rant
Silently blaming the rest for mayhem
Each one wants to be at the helm
Tiny specks floating in vast ambiguity
Seriously believing in their own ingenuity
Day in day out chores to go about
Ignorant bliss often has no place for doubt
I do not understand the sky so blue
Natural splendour that surrounds you
Why does the grass have to be green?
What gives every star its sheen?
The breath of life in each atom
Thereon new marvels hard to fathom
Where does universe originate
Phenomena to which I cannot relate
The violent earth deep in the core
The dangerously quiet seas at shore
The sun and moon in constant attendance
Each element serving in compliance
I do not understand human quirks
Beneath a respectable facade foul play lurks
Friend or foe each one is on the go
So furious a pace yet mentally slow
The haves behave as if they will never die
The deprived don’t realise about what to cry
The show goes on and then some more
Till a force up there steps in and shows the door!
