No Title 41

To close one’s eyes

On world suffering 

Isn’t pragmatism

It’s cynicism 

To go silent

On blatant wrongdoing 

Isn’t smartness 

It’s cowardice 

To move away

From brewing troubles 

Isn’t self-preservation 

It’s self-harm

To choose inaction

In this chaotic world 

Isn’t level-headedness

It’s escapism
