The Mystery
by Peter Hostage
copyright 1999 Peter Hostage
Try to solve the mystery using philosophy, or with astrology, or try theology, ancient mythology, maybe we'll get it
Are we too oblivious, or just too serious, or platitudinous, or too presumptuous, it's too ambiguous to ever get it
Look around, the answer's everywhere
Sight and sound, it's something in the air
Love abounds, you can feel it if you care
Everyone, everywhere, everything, everyday, forevermore life
Some may want to moralize, or they will rationalize, or will hypothesize or sentimentalize but will they realize they didn't get it
Try to be inquisitive or just contemplative thinking in positive and never negative
give in and just let live maybe we'll get it
