everyone has something inside them that shapes who we are
Fragile is the human race

a newborn baby
with no mother
to protect it

Daring are the young and old

an unruley boy
with no father
to set him straight

Curious we were made to be

a zoo born monkey
with no memory
of real trees and freedom

Unwilling to except fate

a murderous criminal
hopes religion
will fix his wrongs

Naive we can be

a silly girl
who thinks
she will live forever

FRAGILE, DARING, UNWILLING, and NAIVE

ingredients to a common code
that produces at random
in each and every one of us

GREATNESS

      or

DISASTER
