human/creature
Victoria Bond 1982 (pa)
Have you ever wondered what everyone is here for,
What are we meant to be doing.
Why is one thing called something certain.
Why is a river called a river and not something else.
How does this world or place actually work.
Where did we actually come from,
Would you say we are human or some exotic creature,
Maybe others are out there asking themselves the questions,
When we die where do our bodies end up.
Is our body in the same place or do they move to another.
Are we happy, sad, or scared, how do we know.
Do our feelings have a meaning or are they
Just there...
