Can everything be measured and understood
Deconstructed down to the last atom
Analyzed, scrutinized and cauterized
For everyone to fathom





 

So we can wax of this and wane of that
Constructing facts of higher distinctions
Only to become unaware prisoners
Within our narrow convictions





Having opinions oblivious of truth
Wallowing in the mire of like-mindedness
We gather strength in divergent purposes
Instead of bonding in communal kindness





 

The best for all, in this time of strife
Is to be well informed but never disaffected
As we have seen time and time again
Knowledge if anything can be redirected



​

Change the view and look from other angles
Better still; ask why before opinions clot
Because in the end we never really know
Who did what and for what we did not
