Believing

A Poem by John Prophet

Believing.
What’s seen.
What’s told.
What’s taught.
Accepting
all.
Simply is.
Past
dictates.
Future
follows.
Everything
is as
it seems.
Following
the rules.
The
program.
Purpose?
Moving
code.
Passing
to the
future.
Easy way.
Safe way.
Going
through
the motions.
What
more is
there?
Born.
Die.
Nothing
in between.
Just a
genetic
pass through.
Victims of
biology.
Acting
out as
coded.
Civilization
as such
constructed.
Human
centric.
Human view.
Finite,
limited.
Reality
thus perceived.
Woefully
inadequate.
Confined,
with blinders.
Infinity 
on a
finite
scale.
