HOLY CRAP

Why do we do what we do,
Why do we need to do it?
What should be done and what not,
And who should be made to do it?
Not all questions have answers,
Neither do all answers have questions
Not all people ask questions-
Yet I never cease to ask them,
That is all I do,
That is all I do...

  1. Why do you call this holy crap ?

    We have no answers only questions
    and you keep asking them. This shows that you are a normal sensible person.

    Some claim that they have all the answers and they are too sure of themselves. They say this is it.

    "crap" is something that is so full full with so many things that u often get confused about what goes with what.. also, "holy crap" sounded most apt a title for people tend to get curious when they see such a title!

  5. "What are you, oh tree?
    Bark?
    Leaf?
    Vein and stomata and mitochondrion and whatnot?
    Flower?
    Petal?
    Ovule?
    Seed?
    Sapling?
    Tree?"

    And the tree stands in the wind
    And waves his arms
    In the young breeze...
    questioning my question
    questioning my answer
    answering my question
    answering my answer.
