Lots of confusion in the world these days: Syria, Afghanistan, Washington, and just about everywhere else. Elements seem unsettled and incomplete. Things just don't seem to be happening in the same order as they once did. Supply is not following demand; the rich are not helping to take care of the poor. Religion is not preaching love -- only solipsism, holding onto one issue in lieu of all issues. Politics has made a mess of justice, and of fairness. Racism rules our political thinking.
And yet the world wags on. We are depleting the atmosphere and poisoning our own air. We are neglecting our lovers, friends and family and honoring our celebrities. We have lost the ability to think. We only react. When we can. When we will let us react. We are impotent.
Perhaps there is no confusion -- only blank stupidity. No profit in that.
