Real Life Experiments

Human guinea pigs or is it really more than that?

Real Life Experiments

 

I wonder if guinea pigs

Ever feel like real teachers

Leading the way,

Mistakes duly noted.

 

No red pen lines remark

But processes changing

Stand up, sit back down

The way is not clear.

 

But emotions should lead them

Crying is not needed

Empathy feeling

Their way in the dark.

 

Bright lights in that tunnel

Transverse synapse connecting

Lateral pushing

The path is ahead.

 

I cannot help but wish

No other must follow

That would be best

All things considered.

 

But if it is necessary

then ease should be foremost

Consider the feelings

Unearthed from the depths.

 

Protecting the soul

Holding hands in the darkness

Leads to the light

Where ever it is found.

 

Now why am I crying

I felt better surely

But now am alone

Pondering the questions.

 

Significant advances

I wasn’t prepared for

One a revelation

Subconsciously hiding?

 

What more is there hidden

And why is the question

Do I really want to know

Drop the blinds, close the door.

 

A sudden surge of desire

For comfort, consoling

Not a comfortable emotion

Hands off is the rule.

 

But something is missing

Mayhap it’s inside me

By trial and error

The truth will win out.

 

I want it to be over

But have fears of it ending

Bottled up all these years

What will fill in the void?

 

And so we move forward

Keeping track of the path

Leaving breadcrumbs to help us

To find our way home…
