Worldview

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Nov 17, 2018

Need
to step
back.
Wound 
tight
we are.
spun up
from birth.
Force fed
all we know.
Everything 
we know
from one 
tiny place.
One mote
of 
spacetime.
Self important 
are we.
Self important 
we think.
Controlling,
manipulating
changing the
world. 
Other ways
exists in
different 
places.
Perspective 
need more
perspective.
Much to
learn.
Infancy still.
