INADVERTENTLY ALIVE

questions
unanswered questions
unanswerable questions
about lots of things
about the self
about the feelings felt
some answers yet to find,
the others yet to digest
yet to sink in
like the harsh reality
hard to see,
or overlook
even hard to face,
and encounter

strange feeling, of being just
left alone
with millions alike
ignored, discriminated against
all for the wrong reasons
judged, thought less of
by fools
who call themselves intellectuals

questioning life itself...
questioning my existence
surviving with flaws,
o too many!
many of them, many types
many kinds...
breathing merely
and being just...
inadvertently alive
