Ode to the East and West
Oh the East,
The way it detangles all your dilemmas
How every single being is enchanted by chants
The melodies of the East sweep your fears away
and fill you with bliss
The people of the East do not give a care for
economy
They would much rather spend on temples
than on things
Things that do not help their inner self grow
The colours painted on their faces
Shows the joy people carry inside
But oh the West,
The way the West has no imperfections,
Every being knows their role in the community
Intellect and organization create unimaginable opportunities
The cities are spotless, the grounds so tidy
The West, so futuristic and so well developed
But, It seems the West and East are missing something,
Eachother.
If only the beings of the West could feel the inner connection
That the East beings do
If only the East could be as developed and as perfect as the West
It seems that if the East had an environment like the West
And the West had self consciousness like the East
Maybe
We would have utopia.
