wasting our precious human lives

 

we are constantly reinventing,

constantly becoming,

always in the throes of unknown unknowns
that rereredefine us
 
 
 
 
I am so very tired of people wasting
our precious human lives finding ways to
hate and deny each other
rather than enjoying our time together.
 
 
 
So thrilling
to have someone to talk to
 
 
 
Is this our lesson from middle school,
hiding and lashing out from our cliques?
 
 
 
The culture of ignorance
bullying against intelligence
making it a choice to fit in
or insist on truth.
 
 
 
Who will I believe --
a stranger whose motives I don’t know,
who posts fake news memes,
or my own experience?
