Mix & Match

each day arrives without
hesitation...  the sun casts
down its warmth on us and
we bask in its luxuries...
we plant crops in the fields
around us not knowing from
whence the seeds come...
we harvest from experience
and lessons acquired at birth...
we are a gracious people,
thankful for our lives as we
understand little about our
origins...  tattered thoughts
surround us like garments
when the sun has decided
not to show itself, leaving
us cold and miserable...
towards the sky we are
looking, understanding not
its purpose but it is there
all the same and never
leaves us to sleep in our
own shame...  and as the
light comes and goes and
we see ourselves changing
from what we were at birth,
we are aware of so much less
than before...  our questions
have no purpose when the
answers are all the same...
we are left to mix and match
our attitudes and the darkness
leaves us seeing who we are.
