The Question's Answer

by Jeffrey Parren

Ever so present in a question
a succession of more questions
leading to another impending question
until it all boils over and, wait, I have to ask some questions.

Why can't you find the answer?
What is the question to the first answer?
What compels you to assume the second without the answer?
Why be concerned with the question coming without the first answer?

I
grasping
holding truth
until stranglehold
compels me to scream
scream in enraged primitivity
natural selection was man's enemy
ability to reason now distorts simple things
all I want
answer the first question.
