How can we mere creatures learn how to fly so high,
Even reaching places beyond the telescopes can see, than the mind can comprehend,
Even landing on faraway moons and planets.
How can we mere mortals learn to dive so deep within the vast oceans,
Going lower than the greatest inventions on earth, than the inhabitants of the seabeds,
Even reading things beneath the lowest points.
How can we not then, as humans with brains and hearts learn how to walk together as brothers and sisters,
To show compassion and kindness and to act like a community does.
How come we reach for the stars yet not keep a firm hold on the ground?
Do we not learn from balloons, and how they explode upon going further up into the atmosphere?
Because we have to understand one thing; what we think are advancements and progress, actually contributes to our regression.
Have a heart.
