Differences

Sometimes, you have to wonder

All those others pulling and pushing

How could we ever all agree?

It’s all propaganda, can’t you see?

I can’t imagine a political system

Under which we could all live

Peering through many different lenses

And all those alternate agendas

Each of us is an island to ourselves

Experience and circumstance

How could we ever be or feel the same?

Wouldn’t that simply ruin our game?

Instead, we should celebrate

Our differences and elaborate

On this weird mental reality

And pray we retain our sanity
