And where, after all, does my desire lie
Brain, mind, soul or mystical third eye?
The questions are strange but certainly real
What is it that causes emotions I feel?
And which is the 'I' that I take as a given
How many more I's to the same answers striven?
On to more questions the rabbit hole hides
Circling, spiralling, falling inside
Loving the journey, resenting the path
At times feeling certain, if only of math
"Damn you Old Man!", the adventurer growls
Awakened at night by owls - and coyote howls
It could have been shorter and easier too
I should have been born seeing only what's True
Instead I learned language and soon how to lie
So now I'm confused and can only ask Why?
