Poem Commentary

What does this mean to you? I still don't know what it means to me yet.

Everything Spins

What kind of creatures are we?
Look at what we have done
We're given such a gift
But we don't care, it's all just fun

As long as we get off our jollies
It doen't matter none
As long as we can walk away
We feel, that we have won

~~~~~~~

Fold it one way, spin it another
But who know's the truth? It's a wonder
They roll the dice and head for cover
Everything spins one way or another

Everything spins, everything spin, spin, spins
Everything spins, everything spins everything

~~~~~~~

What kind of creatures are we?
Build bombs of gas and gun
Yet we say, "In God We Trust"
When all that's good we've left undone

What kind of future have we?
Everything that we have spun
Who's now the who to follow
When everyone's the chosen one?

~~~~~~~

Fold it one way, spin it another
But who know's the truth? It's a wonder
They roll the dice and head for cover
Everything spins one way or another

Everything spins, everything spin, spin, spins
Everything spins, everything spins everything

Im not sure, its a mystery.. but i get what your saying. Everything is about instant pleasure these days instead of what really matters...

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
