If you could see sky in it's entirety all day you would see the world differently
Watching the stars, as if they stand still and we rotate towards them
Like the galaxy is an amusement park and our planet is holding us like a Ferris Wheel seat
See as the clouds surround the trees above, like fog, then disperse just the same
On a clear day look above
You can see that the world is round, the curvature is captivating
At first sight it seems like where we stand in this life is an epiphany
A sudden realization that just a slightly different perception of your surroundings
Can alter your state of mind in such a beautiful and peaceful way
Look at our oceans, fierce, clashing, and unforgiving
You'd never know in person that above the clouds you would see just the same
If truly you could witness all this beauty
Even think of the world differently
Would you function any other way than you do now
Could this raw beauty truly do anything for you in any way at all
Probably not
But wouldn't you still want to see it
Replacing this subject of talk changes nothing here
Money, Power, Fear, Love, even Hatred are second place finishers
Curiosity will always be the one controlling your brain
