Is The Next 100 Do-Able? Poem by Raj Arumugam

if a 100 years from now
one might read this poem
and my other posts
and one says:
‘Wow, how marvelous
these writings’
Then I’d say:
‘You never learn, do you? ’




If a 100 years from now
one might read this poem
and my other posts
and one says
‘Hmmm…what rubbish
writing all these silly stuff’
Then I’d say
‘You never learn, do you? ’



But if a 100 years from now
one reads this poem
and one says
‘Hmmmm...well, that’s interesting
but let me do my own thinking’
Then I’d say:
‘Humanity has come a long way’


And if indeed you now
in contemporary time
if you should read this post
and you should say:
‘Look, let me do my own thinking’
Than I’d say:
‘Yes, surely, the next 100 years is do-able’
