Paradise?

Imagine a world without disease
Where people never grew ill
Imagine a world where we didn't need money
Where nothing came with a bill

Imagine a world where we were all the same
No wars and nothing to fight for
Imagine a world where there were no gods
No heroes or villains in lore

Now imagine how we would feed ourselves
Who decides who, how and when we will die?
Now imagine a world where nothing had worth
No motivation for the best to try

Now imagine a world with no individuals
Drones in a nest of bees
Now imagine there was nothing to believe in
No hope to lift when you fall to your knees

A Human's Duty

How tragic can life be. Love, death, war I find no point in murder, Everyone has their own time Do we need to interfere. I find love to be a farce Why would something so sweet Taste so bitter.

Love & Hate

Love, What is it. What does it mean. Is it something we feel. Or is it something we know. Can you know Love. Can you feel Love. Who knows.

The first lie is this verse The second lie is life The third lie is a number that is more than the sum of man divided by Time The fourth lie is the promise made in love. The fifth lie is Time.

Grey>Black/White

Sometimes I don't want the 'good guy', Sometimes he's too nice. Sometimes I want to test the waters, 'Bad' might add some spice.

Wind Or Rock?

A wind calls out Beckoning the tree's Free as can be The rock; cold and hard: Yet has been so far; seen so much But unable to share Just left to despair Is it wrong.

Saviour

If I was mankind's saviour, disease would have no place. I would quickly eradicate cancer, and protect the human race. If I was mankind's saviour, I would see an end to war.

Wonder Why?

Is it really any wonder we are so confused. Ever wonder why....... Our mothers swallowed a seed But they don't tell us fully How we got inside her belly. Ever wonder why.......

Tell Me

#projecthumanity Tell me, what do you see when you look into the sky. Is humanity and culture not the Apple of your eye. Is our history and lore no longer what you want to see.

Brill piece 👍 love your new profile pik 😊😘

@minxyMolly ty 😊 What pic are you seeing?

@Burrfoot the one of the little girl :)

@minxyMolly lol ty.. That's my daughter, only meant to have it up for a day.. Back to normal pic on my feed 😏

Very thought provoking and insightful piece. 🌟👏👏👏🌟

@ckahn ty 👍 we love in an imperfect world, but like the butterfly effect ideals of perfection have consequences that might make us think 'be careful what you wish for' 😉

That's live not love.. But both work

Wow thought provoking 😌

@tetti2 hope so 👍 challenge everything 💪

Along similar thoughts with you tonight! Though this is intriguing, equality would never work but then someone will always lose out! What world is better?

@Burrfoot yes. Makes me think of the ancient wisdom that does not try to deny life's destructive force but rather embraces it.

@Burrfoot 👏👏👏 lovely☺☺☺

@naaviie @ckahn we just keep evolving and have had the same nature since we were able to throw rocks.. Ying/yang ?
