QUESTIONS FOR SCIENCE

by KATRINA

There have to be answers,
but there are none.

There have to be explanations,
but no one has found one.

There has to be more,
but no one can tell.

What’s out there,
beyond this world?

Are there more worlds?

Are there more people?

Are we not the only ones?

Are we behind the rest of the worlds?

Are we really not advanced?

Are we not people?

Are we aliens?

Are stars really worlds on fire?

Are we naked, clothed?

Are we speaking some weird language?

Are we stupid for wearing shoes?

Are we crazy for liking music?

Are we abnormal?

Are we inhuman?

Are we dumb for eating food?

Are we the weak ones?

Are we vulnerable for trying to learn more?

Are we in harm’s way because we think too much?

Are our brains going to kill us?

Are there creatures out there planning an attack?

Are our gods alien?

Are our fingernails meant to grow to be claws?

Are we supposed to stand up and walk?

Are we stupid for using technology?

Are we a threat to other worlds?

Did I just become a target for thinking about these questions?
