Omg, this is really old, too. We wrote these 'Change' things for a project last year in MF... I had some epic poster that went with this, but I think she kept them all. xD
A change in clarity
Is a simple concept
But a complex process.
It is easy to say
That explanations are effortless.
However, how can one explain something
That he or she does not understand?
The person may think he understands the concept
But does he really?
If he thinks he understands,
Why would he ask for clarification?
He does not.
He tumbles through life
Believing he is correct.
He then spreads his understanding to others
Who are all deceived by the false explanation
And they transmit the sophism to more
And how do we know when it stops?
When it erupts.
This spreading is like a tsunami
It starts as a single ripple
Then it grows and picks up speed with the wind
The mere ripple grows into a wave.
Though it is not feared
The wave turns into a rush
And it is enjoyed by humans
The rush becomes a high tide
And people start to leave
But the high tide does not care.
It gains more capacity and volume
With the wind of false rumors spreading
As its power source
The high tide starts to flood the beach and village
But for the flood, it is not enough.
The wind pushes at its back, urging it to go on
Soon the rain of curiosity accompanies it
With the lightning and thunder of loathing and despise
And that flood turns into a tsunami
People run in fear of the monstrous water
That destroys all in its path
Did the people create this tsunami?
Did the pollution they produce raise the chances
Of this giant destruction?
Is this all mankind’s fault,
Or is it a mixture of that and
The inevitable power nature possesses over mankind?
Clarification is a change in itself
Being simple and complex
All at once.
I wish I could write. TTATT
