Questions Derive From Answers

A Poem by TJB

Imagine a space of nothingness 
Like a long sleep without dreams 
Devoid of recollection 
A moment of absolute peace 
Yet ironically your unable to experience it 
Such a splendor 
A bright though also dark moment 
Even so you wouldn't know right? 
So which should be perceived 
Is this what war is fought for? 
Religion and exploration? 
Are they for nought or pure curiosity? 
This blood soaked earth is all that remains 
A past that will be blanketed in silence 
Along with our consciousness 
Or a long ascending message of warning 
So that if we do descend into a darkness 
A message has at least been passed to warn a silly world 
Bent on repeating itself 
Do we as people feel in sync to this land 
Can we consider our planet a whole? 
Maybe the world just needs that moment of blissful silence?
