Do you have to agree with everything
That ‘everyone else’ calls progress?
Are questions asked, the same as
Fists raised?
Is there room for doubt?
Are the only options available the ‘true believers’
And ‘the enemy’?
Do differences of opinion
Translate to utter incompatibility?
Do we want to live in a world of toxic peace
Where we have more egg shells
Than honest conversations?
Have we allowed the collective and individual
Traumas of our past
To make us infallible victims of today
With ideas that cannot be pushed back upon?
Is it impossible that outside our ivory tower
Something better exists?
Is there any place left place for rebuttal?
