Truth-Seeking

Allah, Jehovah, Brahma, Zeus…

They're all the same to me

And represent humankind's

Quest to find a key--

 

A key that will unlock the door

To what can't be explained

And hopefully confirm that seekers'

Hopes can be sustained.

 

People search for meaning that

Transcends the commonplace

Within this giant universe

Of particles and space.

 

Some say that instead of looking

Outward, search within.

To search for deeper truths, that is

A good place to begin.

 

And if we think we have the answer,

We should not forget

That other folks with different answers

Should not be a threat.

 

Ultimately, if we do

Or don't see eye to eye,

Frankly, none if it will truly

Matter when we die.
