Why do societies fail?
They fail when its promises
do not materialize for everyone.
As their numbers grow,
the disenfranchised and marginalized,
will knock down all pillars.
People are not the same.
One size does not fit all.
Citizenship must be inclusive.
The wise are not omniscient.
The ignorant may not have the words.
Bridges of viability require building.
Selfishness is not righteousness.
Obedience is not wisdom.
Truth must be discovered.
Truth is not hearsay.
Truth is not private.
Truth is verifiable.
Animals learn the truth.
Plants learn the truth.
Water learns the truth.
To survive, the whole society,
each and every citizen,
need learn the truth, too.
