first we are born
into a world we do not know
a society full of problems
that we spend almost all of our lives
attempting to resolve
eh . . .
it isn't until we reach our
golden years
do we find the answers to our problems
so don't you know
we thoughtlessly apply our knowledge
onto the generation following us
this generation
has been born into a world
they do not know
its a society full of problems
and they spend almost all of their lives
attempting to resolve them

etc, etc, etc.......
the circle of life, and we chase our own tails till we get it
LIFE is beautiful, if you let it be
what you do here is by choice, make it a good one

yes, there seems to be a negative Karmic cyclicity to it all! ... well 'penned' indeed.
