Why Such A Rush Poem by chas garcia

Why Such A Rush



Did you ever wonder why; the tides rise and fall. The earth be round,
same up or down, the universe out there, no end to be found,
as infinity in the way, we can only stare; hardly to believe is what is there, do you ever wonder; when we eat and when we sleep,
to repeat this procedure day after day. not knowing what we seek.
what's the use of shaving, when it grows back next day, using soap to wash your face, It's said why we have to pay for school buses and taxes.when we have no kids. The high prices of gasoline. all makes no sense, what has happen to the price of water; it was one time free, the bicycle, walking stick, all things of the past, just think.do you wonder why coffee just a cup, use to be 5 cents need not ask for more, refill free. All this just does not make sense as a haircut cost a quarter a free shave. send you on your way, It's told some places even gave you a shine. can you remember when all the girls were virgins, and never displayed a navel, a knee? the boys not much better, smoked fig leaves wishing they had beards, for today its cocaine, hash, speed.you have a choice, what ever happened to our belief in God, can it be possible that we can go back, start all over, once again.
