Incorrect perceptions, <br />Are imposed and projected... <br />By those with unchanged beliefs. <br />And fixed to satisfied stagnation. <br />Or impressions made, <br />Through assumptions placed <br />Upon imaginations. <br /> <br />Watching the grass grow, <br />May be someone's ambition. <br />In fact... <br />What is the scientific purpose for grass? <br />I don't think I've ever heard that asked. <br />Have you? <br /> <br />And minds like these are difficult to replace. <br />Since so many are deluded, <br />By that which does not exist. <br />But wished. <br /> <br />And observing this against a reality known... <br />As shown to be accepted by those conscious, <br />Becomes clear why there is much conflict of interest. <br />And a need for so many to forever play, <br />The cowboys against the indians. <br />The good against the bad. <br />And the ugly...? <br />Well, <br />We do all have our missions.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
