Wonder.

don't wonder why people go crazy.
wonder why they don't.
in the face of all we can lose in a day,
in an instant.
wonder what the hell it is
that makes us hold it together.

even just a little.

We like to think that we are rational beings; humane, conscientious, civilized, thoughtful. But when things fall apart, even just a little, it becomes clear we are not better than animals. We have opposable thumbs, we think, we walk erect, we speak, we dream, but deep down we are still routing around in the primordial ooze; biting, clawing, scratching out an existence in the cold, dark world like the rest of the tree-toads and sloths.
