Seed

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Sep 28, 2019

Wrapped in a
reality.
All that we
know and
understand.
Ensconced in
this seed.
How we 
behave,
what we 
believe,
how we 
perceive.
Born in 
this place
wrapped tight
where we are.
Reflection of
our soul.
Opened our
eyes and here
we are.
Not knowing 
how
 or why.
Moving through,
self righteous 
we become.
Understanding 
nothing
 of the
why 
of things.
Pondering,
self reflection 
lacking in 
our veins.
Accepting 
all that is
seen.
Question.
Question everything.
Nothing is
as it
seems.
