Equation

the equation is simple
in so many ways
it hasn’t changed in
ten thousand days
however nobel
for those who lead
the prize is the killer
of passion for greed
give or take a freedom
we own naturally
watch us dance
for the small things
like monkeys in trees
do we learn from experience
or naturally
does the pain of denial
ever force us to see
the equation is simple
in so many ways
it hasn’t changed in
ten thousand days
