How?
How can
you sing the blues when you’ve never had your heart broken?
How can
I understand what’s on your mind, when not a word is spoken?
How do
you describe the taste of bologna to someone who has only eaten steak?
How do
you explain the ocean to someone who has never seen a lake?
How can
you know freedom from behind a prison door?
How can
you perceive peace when all you know is war?
How can
you expect to find love when all you know is hate?
How can
you be humble when everyone says you’re great?
How can
you feast upon a banquet when you know hungry children cry?
How can
you tell the truth when all you were taught is to lie?
How do
you understand color when all you see is white?
How can
you know darkness when all you know is light?
How can
you know how bad my feet hurt, if you don’t walk in my shoes?
How can
you know the music when you never sang the blues?
How can
you know what’s in another’s heart,
If you
haven’t lived their life from the start?
Before
you hate, fear and judge your brother,
Live in
peace, harmony and love one another?
Dedicated to my
friend Archie Lee Hooker who’s statement “How do you describe the taste of
bologna to someone who has only eaten steak?” inspired this poem.
