How many important things are there?
Is it beauty, blood, bones or bond
that every living soul does share?
Or of a bag of bucks you are so fond?
How many matters do really matter?
Is it fashion, fury, fire or freedom
that is eclipsed by political chatter?
Or are you following a fool's wisdom?
How many voices are worth hearing?
Of the skull, sermon, scream or silence
that sends the world into suffering?
Or are you spellbound by sinister chants?
How many species possess a divine grace?
Is it more, many, multitudes or millions
that walk the earth with or without trace?
Or ‘one' that makes merry living in oblivions?
How many important things are there?
One, some or all? Here, there, where?
