-What I know- I don't know much, But I’m smart enough to feel | Scribbles

-What I know-

I don't know much,
But I’m smart enough to feel stupid.
I know that I don't know.
I know pain,
I know rain,
I know happiness,
I know sunshine, and rainbows
and I know power
for I know the pen.

I know to be a writer is to be a voice to the voiceless,
but that doesn’t even make sense does it
why would I run to the paper if I had a voice of my own
I know we’re all confused...
I know the wise man is a fool who started to wonder.

I know the world is flawed and that humans were not made to fix it
I know politics is just gangbanging with suits on
And smiles are deadly weapons
I know tribalism is a just fancy word for group love and that’s human nature
and I know federalism is an upgraded way of divide and conquer
I know democracy is a sugar-coated popular demand
And that what’s popular isn’t always right
I know Socrates and Jesus both died for it
One out of spite and one out of love
I know deep down that the crucifixion was simply another form of democracy and I know that I was the only party that benefited from it:
The free Barabbas
i know death is the only experience a human can’t lie about
I know little
Forgive me for I may know wrong

but I know not having an opinion is better than validating stupidity
I know brave suicidal kings
I know rulers who killed colonizers
I know the people that fought with love
I know that the sword trumps a gun when the heart is the armor
I know Elders who ruled with effective democracy before anyone did
I know men who revolted injustice
I know my history
I know no tribes
I know no race
I know people

I know the devil is real
I know his favorite place to hang is on my left shoulder and in the tv screen
I know God exists
For I know my mother
I don’t know much
I may know wrong

I know that the universal language of the earth is business
and that money buys clothes but not warmth
I know greatness demands sacrifice and love sacrifices comfort
I know words are magic,
a book hexes the mind
I know conversations heal the world
I know some break the heart

I know the constant hunger of a human is superiority
and I am no different
I wish to know more
I don’t know much
I too am terrified of the unknown
but I still know that not everything is explained
I know not to accept that

I apologize if I offend
I may have used up my free speech
I hope i won’t be charged for it,
'cause as you can tell I know little
forgive me,
for I may know wrong.
