Synopsis

We are given the knowledge of our world and not much more
Outer space is still outer space and not an open door
Life is a journey of time for conscious thoughtful acts and not a guided tour.

Physical and mental change are crucial for the human to become a "being"
Who we were, who we became, and who will we become; is part of seeing
Life is filled with questions of import not just agreeing.

The human mind is unique in presenting us with insistence and difference
A thought or an idea should be examined and not just to offer resistance
Very little in life is achieved without persistence.

Knowledge is the harvest from questioning seeds that arise from out of thought
The uniqueness of a human mind is just about all each of us have got
Seek and you shall find; are not just words of naught.

Our holy and sacred grail is the soul each one receives
It is thoughts that count and only the obvious we need to believe
When in doubt question again not to be deceived.

A child's mind is a beautiful wonderful place
More magnificent and miraculous than even heavenly grace
It grows and changes in a climate of freedom and human faith.

The mind is a priceless gift as our eternal mirror of earthly time
God gave you yours as surely as the creator gave me mine
As the center of love inside the circle of a single compassionate line.

The mind is our chalice to put into and remove
Earthly life is a journey to keep our soul or else we lose
Thought can be of light or darkness made by what we chose.

I have used "Webster's" international as my primary guide
Yet when I counted its female contributors I almost cried
Imagine the female mind is treated as irrelevant by the other half of humanity who lied.

Most words and meanings came from the minds of only men
Since the beginning of time and that includes when and then
Man has been in charge before the scribes and before the pen.

What is a mind and how will we know
Quite obvious as it sits inside our heads and we allow it to grow
What we know as an adult, we knew not as a child and that is so.

Words do not live forever but become archaic, obsolete, and finally die
Just as a language of words not used by the living cannot survive
If time did not include change than no one on earth would be alive.

What our sense's present is transformed into energy and stored in our mind
Questions are as seeds to sow and hopefully all the lame will walk in time
A good rule of thumb is what is yours is yours and what is mine is mine.

Every act carries intent, choice, and desire
Some conscious, most by reaction, and rarely questions prior
There is a presence of evil on earth from the lowest to the higher.
