If You Try To Philosophise! Poem by Susan Wood

If you try to philosophise!
The reason folks violate others lives
The simple fact is very plain,
They want the bitterness to remain.
And that is why they’ve done it all,
They wish that others meet their fall.

But then, to get on with life’s game
And try to stay the very same.
The way your true nature is,
And live the life you want to live.
Not in fear, not in pain,
But in peace, let solace remain.

For them that‘s life, it’s very plain
It’s called the mendacious game.
The rapist’s rape, to sully the soul.
The burglar robs, to destroy the whole.
To take away you’re security,
And maximise, you’re vulnerability.
This is what it’s all about.
No need to scream, no need to shout.
Just get on with life’s game
