huh?

why they asked…
for a certain number
did anyone compare
it made me wonder
why do i hear
is the primary question
how who didn’t help
created the answer
writing far and wide
with my eyes inside
seeking help i did
from tribe to tribe
... including my own
but it wasn’t their song
and so I search on
.
“can you read this?
only 55 percent of people can…”
the eyes assume much
of what’s in between
did anyone ever ask…
where the letters have been?
