I try to keep an open mind <br />for things that cannot be defined. <br />Foreknowledge and telepathy, <br /> anything extra sensory. <br /> <br />Clairvoyance and clairaudience, <br /> which seem to use a different sense <br />from the five which we all use <br />It seems we aren’t allowed to choose <br /> <br /> Levels of sensitivity. <br />are distributed randomly. <br />Although we try we can’t deny <br /> that some unwritten rules apply <br /> <br />That these wild talents do exist <br />That’s why belief will long exist. <br />We can’t present proof positive. <br />All the evidence we can give <br /> <br /> is anecdotal at the best <br />and fails all scientific test <br />Administered by tight closed minds <br />absorbed in prejudice which blinds <br /> <br /> to any possibility. <br />Which they can’t touch or taste or see. <br />Although I do not understand <br />I cannot dismiss out of hand <br /> <br />Abilities which some possess. <br />but are reluctant to express. <br />Because they do not want to be <br /> Subject to foolish mockery <br /> <br />You are convinced it can’t be true <br />and you refuse to listen to <br /> any opposing argument <br />Your mind tight closed you are content <br /> <br />to live your life in ignorance <br />. Ascribing everything to chance <br />A choice you are entitled to <br /> if you prefer a blinkered view. <br /> <br />Because some things can’t be defined <br />I much prefer an open mind. <br />I can accept quite easily <br /> not every body will agree. <br /> <br />There’s so much that we do not know <br /> about the human mind.Although <br />it seems to be illogical <br />I think nothing’s impossible. <br /> <br />08/04/2009 <br />http: // blog.myspace.com/poeticpiers<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sense-and-sensitivity/
