I spoke with a priest
who told me that God
had His reason in everything
and that prayer and faith were the
ultimate paths to resolve.
I spoke with a scientist
who told me about Darwin
and Mendel and said that it
all boiled down to genetics
and an interaction of chemicals.
I spoke with a philosopher
who felt that Marx had it right--
that the Capitalistic exploitation
of man would keep us all
from true expression.
I spoke to the Chaos
who showed me a mother
holding her child and a man
shooting another in the head.
And he said, "Allow it."
