Matter (Material)

A Poem by Indra's Child
"

What's the matter with you...

"
Those eyes are yours, to see the world-
To look around, to view perfection
That mind is yours, and yours alone-
To connect the dots, to form perception
That voice is from another's mouth,
That fills your ears and finds the found
Something not quite right with what;
You believe in sits with you and stays...
Wonder in the wandering makes you feel as though you've strayed

What's the matter with you?
Words fail me, because yours aren't true

You've got flesh on those bones,
Those fingers are your home
Your hearth lies at the heart of it
Walk out again and quit
You're materialistic
