Poetry: Asking why

Come with me through the looking glass
You see your reflection and understand what you see
Then pass on through
Leave behind your beliefs, your superstitions
Your pre-programed comfortable simple thoughts
Step through, close your eyes and see with your mind
Concentrate now, then look, look
Focus all your thoughts, your energies
Your very being to the omni effort
Then answer the question by asking a question
With why, then why, then why
Distill the question to its lowest common denominator
By using your life’s knowledge
Then pass beyond your limits and ask why once again
And answer from a plain of thought
That is beyond your mechanical learning
Let your mind dwell in the metaphysical world of another dimension
Your thoughts then are not of you
They come from that time and space hidden within us all
Break through your earthbound mind
Then visit the place where all is possible
And ask why one last time
