Chameleon
Fading into the crowd
Just another face
Just one more brick
Layered together to build
This crazy world
Sitting back and observing
The habits of others
Getting to know them
Their true nature
Seeing their little idiosyncrasies
Do people realize who they are?
What they do?
So many need to wake up
Realize that we are ALL in this together
Reach out a caring hand
Look to your left
Then to your right
The next time you are out
Can you see the sadness they each bare?
Are you too busy?
That is all it takes
To start to make changes
In somebody else's life
Take just one moment
To look through their eyes
Just another face
Just one more brick
Layered together to build
This crazy world
Sitting back and observing
The habits of others
Getting to know them
Their true nature
Seeing their little idiosyncrasies
Do people realize who they are?
What they do?
So many need to wake up
Realize that we are ALL in this together
Reach out a caring hand
Look to your left
Then to your right
The next time you are out
Can you see the sadness they each bare?
Are you too busy?
That is all it takes
To start to make changes
In somebody else's life
Take just one moment
To look through their eyes

Amen to your last line. Pink Floyd's song 'Another Brick in the Wall' comes to my mind, part of which would perhaps make background music to reading of it.

Hm. True sentience really is uncommon, isn't it? Very valuable, however, and leads to the discovery of truth.

l'il darl'in this is life affirming. Beautiful in its compassionate world view.. Makes me think of Michael Jackson's "Man in the Mirror" or Phil Collins' "Man on the Corner"
