Too long silent

Even now,

 I see the futility.

What is wrong with us?

Always looking for a reason,

  and it doesn't have to be real.

Some simple excuse,

  and off we go.

The results keep building.

No way to really see who was at fault.

Too many randoms.

I try to be an innocent.

By that,

  I mean we don't have to.

Simple concept.

Just get along.

Tired of quietly shaking my head.

The world today, and yet, it can be applied to each of our lives.

Sometimes, I think that is the problem. It does not have to occur on a global stage. All you need to see is within yourself, and those around you. I can only propose the simplest solution.

[Papaya]

Yeah, I get impression this is linked to my last review. The getting along part though, I really wish.
Really do. That's why so many of us run away I guess.

[Jon Roggie]

In a way, I was stunned that night. A large part of it was knowing what would happen next. I was writing about what had sparked the protests, and the pattern continued.

[Pryde Foltz]

Getting along is an art but I share your sentiment:)

[Jon Roggie]

It is an art form, and one worth working towards.

[Shannon]

simple message, has me wishing, perhaps even a tiny bit believing, it were so simple.

[Jon Roggie]

The concept is the simple part. The rest takes effort.

[Shannon]

Agreed. The most important things in life are.
