WHAT IF...

What if...
The fairlyland of the dreamer...
In which all things are out of place and let to chance.

A pantheon of confusion, he who is presumptuous.
An examplar of indecision, inaction.

Even of the natural world, the reality of life they deliberate, question; sitting still.

Of race, what if I am white...
Of gender, what if I am...
Of religion, what if I am...

They take pleasure in the privileges they hold above others and thank the vicissitudes of chance why they are not the opposite of what they are and of what they don't have, they don't make up for it but sit idly wishing, what if I am...

What is, is and will ever be lest we act to change the course of things.
Life is and we are of race, gender, nationality...
And we must act to change the course of history and our very own definition as a race, person...

We remember history more than history will remember us because most of our life is spent deliberating and questioning, "what if..."

Insufferable fools, they who want the world to be regulated according to their own fantasies while they idly sit wishing "what if..."
All years of deliberation, questioning, inaction, indecision has brought them to the state they are.

They are still and waiting for the right moments.
Scarcely they know in what direction they wait.
All strength, courage departs from their limbs when all virtue, potential is been exhausted by sitting still deliberating and questioning.

"What if"... is hypothetical.
It does not exist.
Act now!
And wake from the sleep of illusion, oh dreamer.
