the unknown

nobody knows the secret, 

nobody knows the mystery, 

hankering desperately

for power, and respect, 

with weapons, and words, 

garbage all over the world, 

a dead end

closing all trajectory

the spiritual and the material 

spaces, the learned ignorant

schools, fighting like rascals

and fools, debris of insipid

ideas filling the sultry air

with more of dirt, bringing in

violence, intolerance, 

breeding filthy hatred, 

its scarlet results

re-read in history

everybody poses to know the secret, 

everybody seems to know the mystery…
