INQUISITIONS

How far do we need to walk,
Before we be called a traveller?

How long do we need to wait,
Before we can say the wait is over?

How much bloodshed shall be made,
Before life finally becomes a cake-walk?

How much do we need to weep,
Before the altar declares us purified?

How long do we need to live,
Before life finally says we can die?
