A Mind to Hold
/Everything’s an excuse for something else – except, “being alive.”
(But some folks have almost succeeded in that area also.)
Man was given a mind to hold,
and now it holds him.
Even the ordinary can sometimes appreciate creativity, unless it is originality in thought or feeling.
Just as men believe that laws hold civilization together, so too they believe in thinking, and in their mind.
“Daddy, why don’t men give credit to life for its part in their upkeep?”
“Because they don’t recognize it.”
“But why don’t they recognize it?”
“It’s too close to their everyday upkeep.”
“But what if they got a super telescope-microscope, Dad?!”
“Ah, but they already have the makings of one!”
