Thoughts are provoking
When voiced in arrogant tones
A putrid venom
Raising the ire of foes
Stinging the hearts allies
A higher standard
We aspire to be held
This has always been
Yet we bully and coerce
We push, shove and we degrade
They aren’t our children
We are not their guardians
Ego says elseways
Sometimes it’s best to step back
Letting cooler heads prevail
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
At times a troublemaker,
Like the kid up the street,
Always wanting to pick a fight.
Not for any reason really…
Just curious.
Curiosity–
Is it friend or foe?
Yes!
On both counts. Yes!
What discoveries might have been lost?
What cures for disease,
Missions to the moon,
Lost civilizations,
Were it not for man’s insatiable appetite?
But at times our hunger kills the cat.
With chemical warfare,
Nuclear bombs,
And crime.
All because,
We were just…
Curious.
