Questions


When do we begin?

Where do we begin?

From what within?

Makes us more human?

How truly do we start?

 

The soul?

Or the very essence of the heart?

Our memories as a whole?

Of the beginning?

Can we not remember?

 

Who are we?

Or rather, who we are.

If not our memory?

More than flesh and blood.

Can we become something more?

Who thinks we should?

Just to see what's in store.

If only.

If only, we could.

Ricemaster Supreme

I like to cartoon, I engage in the lost art of "reading for fun", and I like writing humor or satire. If you can't tell by my profile picture, I like rice.
