Is the problem solved
Because we evolved
A collective quest
Mankind’s big test
Waiting for what’s next
Can’t decipher old text
Another torn fable
Won’t set the table
Can we survive this
Or is it a near-miss
Womb to the grave
Fearful to brave
Redeem the martyr
Rewrite the charter
Look to the dark skies
See where the truth lies
We’ve reached outer space
What about the human race
Fellow man is left behind
Death certificate signed
World’s apart
Of a same heart
From a distant past
To the infinite vast
Why is it man versus man
Was that the ultimate plan
Let us join together as one
And remove the damage done.
A poem by Jason S. Sullivan, 11-24-20
