Tusk Why do bees sting When they’re under attacks, When they know surely they'll die? Why do mammoths survive With their heavy feathers While some elephants Live in tropical weather? Why are some people Impervious as dirt? While others fear Of being hurt? How can bees be alive after attacks? How can elephants escape from extinction? How can people be delivered from pain? Is vulnerability a crime? What if bees didn't sting? What if elephants had thick fur? What if humans showed no emotions? What if we all try to hide from being touched? Would bees gain in nature? Or would they rather be Without the sting? Would their survival rate be greater, in either way? If elephants had thick fur, Would they move to the north, So no one could steal tusks from them? Or would hunters try to get their furs, Accelerating the extinction fate? Where would humanity be, If there was no vulnerability? Would we then, wear a mask Everyday, holding our tears? Would we then, be better off, With greater friends, deeper bonds? Or would vulnerability Bring a surprise ending?

"Where will be human humanity, If there was no vulnerability? Would we then, wearing a mask Everyday, holding our tears?" I think that even with vulnerability, we still all wear masks to hide our tears. I liked this poem. It raises good questions worth debating. "Ain't Got no quarrels with God, ain't got no time to grow old. Lord knows I'm weak, won't somebody get me off of this reef" |
