I am not disturbed
Or confused,
But perplexed.
Why would they behave this way?
Only for short term gain.
Why don’t they see what I see?
Is this a movie or worse a play?
A play where the script
is being written by another force;
One they don’t see or recognize
overtaking their lives.
Leaving me here like some bystander
Who can see the consequences,
When no one else seems to care.
Perplexed.
Or is this a call to action?
Not to just regret or pray for change in others;
Not of the body or mind
But of the heart.
This observational state I am now in
Let’s me see the actions
And but a glimpse of motivation,
Mostly it shows me futility
And meaninglessness in a 3D movie
Now my working life.
So perplexing.
Yet there is something more than just the perplexing;
Like dynamic revelation
I see more, yet don’t quite understand
Perhaps that’s enough for now.
And if I pour love in the stew I see
All will see the meal they are creating.
Leading them to change.
