Sadness After Feeling Their Thoughts Poem by Margaret Alice

Why analyze traditional thinkers – haven’t you
noticed the sadness after feeling their thoughts?

Why not create new concepts of God that fulfill
all your needs and dreams; don’t you realize

Regurgitating opinions of failed systems will
not change yourself or the world?

Why not read exciting books with new theories
unheard-of before

Rethinking life from a new vantage point? The
vision from here is intoxicating

Possibilities endless; why stay immersed in
the Western corset, why not take a look

At ancient Eastern wisdom, a system so
like quantum-physics, describing

Consciousness in a new way, while recognizing
the power of observation to change

The thing that is studied – because it feels your
attention which proves it is aware, while you

Are so proud to announce most of the world
is quite dead, yet Implicate Order Theory

Formulated by David Bohm illustrates how
awareness is universal

In our hologram-universe? You want to reread
the Classics – while unaware of the Moderns

Nietsche, Marx and Freud is old hat, you’ve
read them before, be brave and go forth

Discover new territory - be your own judge,
don’t decide in terms of another’s mind…
