the truth of seclusion (a found poem with the words of Sean O'Neill)
It will always be unfair--
the world
You can't fix
“broken"
so don't think everyone can be saved,
lifted up.
Please,
take care of yourself
and teach others to take care
for themselves.
Please,
don't damage your personal substance
--that is the only individualization of universal reason
that will unite you with our macrocosm--
to save everyone else.
Please,
do to others as you would have them do to you,
but live with caution,
because the eyes are useless
when the
mind
is
blind.
Today’s engenderment craves individual needs before anything else,
hiding all emotions,
but forgetting that eyes speak,
deeply belonging to themselves,
but lusting after the world.
Today,
they become apart of
everything,
but nothing at all,
wanting nothing,
but are given everything.
