Philosopher’s Query

That and those which produce brutality out of innocence

Moments stolen by emotional mercenaries,

A trembling hand reaching out only to receive another question in return

The curiosity of an insomniac toting a sleep journal,

Or why clocks are in command

Definition seems more the need for creation than the desperation for solution,

As it also appears utopia exists only in a fishbowl

Many ideas are removed from another place,

Exceptions are the past inventions presently veiled

In existence, a cycle of dictators and rebels are readily at hand,

Just as a philosopher will constantly have his or her queries
