So, What's the Difference ©Richard Chu Feb/18/2001

So, what 's the difference after all,
Between you and me,
We are all
Growing old this way,
In the Cage --

Of the Fictious Civilization.
In which we thought we have found The Truth
And Realization
Of the Divine Order,
And have learned how to behave and what to do
As a true soldier
Of the Sage...

So, that's what's happened.
We have all grown old & rotten
In the Page --

Of the Pretentious Sophistication.
In which we thought we have obtained The Knowledge
And Authorization
From the Defined Supremes.
But have gained no clue how to accept and acknowledge
Our true beings
Of the Savage...

So, what does it matter after all
To you and me
We are all
So weak and meek,
carrying smiles in our cheeks,
Seeing what happens this way everyday
In our faces, to our souls...
Our grown-old-and-rotten souls
In the Sewage.

The end
