I知 curious

I知 Curious
How many understand every star in the sky
is a sun?
And that there are more stars in the sky
than sand on the earth
Think about that
And our sun is NOT the center of the
Milky Way
Left alone the
universe

I知 Curious
How many remember trees make oxygen?
And we need the rainforests to live?
How many know about the
Sea of trash
off the Pacific Coast
Slowly killing sea life
like were slowly killing
Mother Earth

Curious
How many would help a homeless woman
on the street?
How many of my friends will look into her eyes
and see me?
There is a 99.99%
Difference in all of humanity
We are all pretty much the same
But won稚 help one another
That to me is insane

I知 Curious
How many think they are better
than the next?
How many pray for someone
other than themselves?
How many have a sympathetic thought
when they see a hurt animal
other than a cat or a dog?

I知 curious
about this experiment called
hu(e)manity
I want to know if this gift called existence
really a gift?
Or it some kind of sick experiment?
