The days were very short.
With Sun in exile,
and very few to talk to,
one sought comfort
in loneliness.

~

The fact
is human beings,
seek security
(in friendships
and in others).

~

Friendships with Nature,
with children and parents alike,
to oust the loneliness
that pervades
everywhere.

~

Why do men and
women not converse equally?
(deeply, honestly, and with care)
Did talking not make us
human?

~

One seeks
pleasure,
and happiness and a full square meal
to quench
one’s hunger.

~

Eventually the thick veil of culture
simply dissolves.
A feeling of connectedness
strike from
within.
