The answer to love may not be hate

and impatience is not about having to wait,

but what if failure is success

and the key to life is found in death?

Some say birth is a curse;

non-existence sounds worse,

and the happiest marriage

can turn to divorce.

School’s the place where we learn

to be fools.  Go to church

if your aim is to give up the search.

Those in prison don’t forget

there’s a sun that has risen

and a nightmare’s awareness

proves at least that you care.

As you go through each day,

please refrain from dismay,

and don’t fret when the game board

begins to decay.  You don’t need

anyone else here to show you the way.

Take the world for a walk, then–

tell me what do you say?
