The questions sit Inside Rattling about Rocks in a can Disturbing the peace They have to come out Doesn't matter who Doesn't matter when In front of who The recklessness Of your curiosity Shakes the world People walk by They listen and shake their heads The internet laughs They point to the trolls Corporations listen Equal mixture curious and afraid Governments listen In abject terror And besmirch your character Doesn't matter who Doesn't matter when In front of who The recklessness Of your curiosity Shakes the world Rattle cages and Rattle minds Wonder at the imperfection Of the world's so called sanity Question it all Always ask Discomfort breeds truth Truth makes things happen Doesn't matter who Doesn't matter when In front of who The recklessness Of your curiosity Changes the world

Question
The questions sit Inside Rattling about Rocks in a can Disturbing the peace They have to come out Doesn't matter who Doesn't matter when In front of who The recklessness Of your curiosity Shakes the world People walk by They listen and shake their heads The internet laughs They point to the trolls Corporations listen Equal mixture curious and afraid Governments listen In abject terror And besmirch your character Doesn't matter who Doesn't matter when In front of who The recklessness Of your curiosity Shakes the world Rattle cages and Rattle minds Wonder at the imperfection Of the world's so called sanity Question it all Always ask Discomfort breeds truth Truth makes things happen Doesn't matter who Doesn't matter when In front of who The recklessness Of your curiosity Changes the world
Based on a conversation with a dear friend of mine, he originally coined the line 'recklessness of your curiosity' and it stuck in me.
