Cogito, Ergo Sum Poem by Christopher Tye

Cogito, Ergo Sum



Cogito, Ergo Sum

I think therefore I am,
René Descartes once thought,
But nowadays far too many,
Have the ability to do and not think.

Politicians creating wars,
With-out any thought,
To the millions who suffer,
And the countless war graves.

Businessmen only interested,
In the bottom line and profit,
No need to think about the workers,
Or the social injustice of poverty.

So it's time to think for ourselves,
What do you want our future to be,
A world fit for all peoples,
A future for our children and the world,
Liberty and equality finally?
