Soft spoken and simple
those are the words
that can define humanity
at it's best.
Today the world is busy--
thundering sounds bustle around our homes
ideology starves us of ourselves
and prevents us from being together.
Concerned over the affects
each new thing brings--
the segregation that can arise
is quelled with the fear of looking
as if a fossil whom does not understand.
To have an open mind
takes an open book,
but today nothing needs to be opened
each answer is directly given to you
and the burden to be educated
is on the system
instead of yourself.
Society is decided by the truth
and the truth is always changing
so with open minds
can it bring us all together.

Really mixed up ideas here, which I do not feel did justice in conveying. As the current trend of people feels rather stagnant. There seems to be less current thinkers than the past and more people more willing to mostly follow the line in the sand. Modern society leads to a downward trend for averages and a modest need of people to realize the need to chisel away linear thought.
