Poetic question and answer Go?

[bennie2]

Answer previous question and then pose a new question of your own.

First question:
When you curse the day, does the sky get mad?

[Doreen Peri]

The sky cries,
then forgives.
A garden grows
from raintears.

.......
question -

What do you count on, when all has been accounted for?

[bennie2]

i count on little moments of joy
babies' laugh, children's smiles
i count on nature knowing
a fresh breeze, soft raindrops
i count on quietness
secluded corners and darkened bedrooms

when all else has been accounted for, i check the decimal places of existence and find the smaller details pleasing.

if the globe still resembled Pangaea, would there be less (or more) fighting in the world?

[Doreen Peri]

If the globe still resembled Pangaea,
it would be more clear that we are all connected,
brothers, sisters, mothers, others, the family of man.

But still there would be fighting, I can guarantee it!
Do you know how I know? Because they would because they can!

That's a sad and sorry answer, yes I know, my friend.
(here's to hoping the fighting one day will end)

But I ask you this ... if you please...

Do you think it's possible we'll ever eradicate disease?

[bennie2]

disease is just a knowledge that leads to the answer: death!
old age is no disease
nor falling from a branch
disease is knowledge that "a" particular
unseen thing caused death.
is heartache then a disease?
disease will live so long as man has brains
and man will die so long as disease has breath

is the Glass (capital G) half full or half empty?

[WIREMAN]

the sky went
everywhere today
then the thunder
cracked and we
walked out from
the jam and into
the hard rain

[Doreen Peri]

yes... and here's the question..


....

where's the question?

[judih]

the question is blowing in the wind.
the question always blows
like a froth full of enigmas
just like that

where's the questioner?

[Terri]

here was the damn
(no, not damn)
rain, today
smelled so good
like fish, even
here in ohio
cat went crazy

[mnaz]

is the Glass (capital G) half full or half empty?

At least two ways to go on this: "Both" is the correct answer.
And so is "neither", if we're talking basic subatomic physics of
glass, or matter in general, which actually consists of a lot more
space than stuff. Mind blowing stuff, if you think about it for too
long. I wonder if they'll ever discover "space atoms" (and what
would they be made of? God?)...

Question: If Noah saved only two of all animal species, and then
sacrificed a goat after he was saved from the Flood, then why do
goats still exist?

Or... what is empty space made of?

[bennie2]

Everything in the universe contains more space than content
the thing that holds us together most is nothing

I saw a <a href="http://www.tate.org.uk/britain/turnerpr ... teread.htm" target="_blank">Rachel Whiteread</a> piece at GOMA one year - the collected spaces contained within (without) various chairs. The space around proved to be more interesting and beautiful than the objects themselves.

What is empty space made of? the sound of rustling paper played backwards in a purple loop under a black light.

question: Is evil innate in "evil people" or attained?

[judih]

the evil in 'evil' people is good (to them)
so who's to say?

[Whitebird Sings]

i've known Evil
known what it can do when it goes beyond even it's own definition of what is good
and all that was left was a small patch of the child's flannel shirt
the rest was ash
and screams

and memories

[WIREMAN]

do the toura toura
all evil turns to trance
doumbek .......rattles and bells
tabla mochine
spike fiddle
toura toura
bass
make 'em dance
dispelll the wicked

[mnaz]

make em dance
or mourn.
make em make em..
