Humans are amazing,a truth which is empirical
A carbon based structure so complex it's just a miracle
Physically and functionally we're truly astounding
Transfigured through millennia to adapt to our surrounding
At a cellular level there are processes abound
That maintain our daily function, keep our bodies working sound
Organs and the nervous system and miles of veins connected
All built upon a blue print which evolution has perfected
The blood, the bones the reproductive system.
Exemplify the wondrous, too many parts to list them.
Though as I sit and contemplate the amazing human kind
It's hard for me to fathom why the mind's so far behind.
That's not to discredit all of history's greats, the textbooks are littered with mental heavyweights.
The point I'm trying to highlight with my rhyming reflection is the minds of many out there are filled with imperfection.
There are social and cultural causes at the root but the net result is quirkiness in people that you meet.
Bigots, addicts, phobics, so many traits to list
liars, cheats the insecure, has you're oddity been missed
Know it alls, the violent and those who have no humour
All contain some personal mindset tumor.
We physically evolved from surroundings and constraints.
But our minds cannot be left to adapt in such a way.
We need to build a framework to eradicate sour linking and create a mental structure to shape the purest thinking.
Build values without fictitious parables
Shrink the ego, see all men as comparable
Remove greed and envy change our relationship with desire
Stop concepts like greedy, needy and liar.
With teachings and structures that cultivate things good
Could we craft new mental states like a figure carved from wood?
Could true altruism be shaped from a purer grounding?
Could addiction be removed by a more intelligent surrounding?
What action would be needed to positively affect
Our processing power to shape more intellect
To suppress all the defects previously referenced
And even if we could would that be your preference?
Would you want proactive intervention to affect your children's brains
To create and inhibit all that it contains?
And what would be the side affects of accelerated evolution?
What new and evil deformities could result as substitution?
And anyway who says it's not already occurring
That some panel or other decide after conferring
That those in the hot seats choose to what we are exposed
Permeate our minds, unopposed undisclosed
After very little thought I think I'll take an action
to helps my kids along start a positive reaction
I'll wield my mind scalpel and make a mental incision
No longer will they watch American crap on television
....there problem solved!
