It is so easy
For to much of humanity
To brag and boast
About longevity
The conflicts of religion
The conflicts of economics
The conflicts of ideology
All mean the same thing
"I am right"
"I know how to control"
"I can find resources"
Despite it is all bullshit
'THOUGH logic-choppers rule the town,
And every man and maid and boy
Has marked a distant object down,
An aimless joy is a pure joy,'
Or so did Tom O'Roughley say
That saw the surges running by.
'And wisdom is a butterfly
And not a gloomy bird of prey.
'If little planned is little sinned
But little need the grave distress.
What's dying but a second wind?
How but in zig-zag wantonness
Could trumpeter Michael be so brave?'
Or something of that sort he said,
'And if my dearest friend were dead
I'd dance a measure on his grave.'
William Butler Yeats
