Beyond Reason

You only exist so the guiding light has someone to follow it

The lawn exists for the gnome

A house is just a place for windows to fit

The paper is the reason for the poem

The ocean is there to dampen the sand

A ring is the reason we have a hand

You only have ears because there is noise

We have to make children because we made toys

We only feel so we can fight

There’s only darkness to cover up light

We had to have left or we’d always be right

Beauty exists for our sight

We had all this canvass so we had to make paint

I guess there’s plenty of heaven so they had to kill saints

There’s a moon above to pull on the tides

We have all these questions because there is why

Stars fall for telescopes to see

Bees need a home so the earth grew a few trees

We had to have that because we have this

Loves only real because the two of us exist
