It's hard...

to believe that anyone has the answer! Not a definitive one anyway. There is so much information out there, some of it true, some not so true, and some of it outright lies. I guess, it depends on your perspective. I am not such a big fan of repetitive
lines, but it is an effective way to ask this question without having to get all involved in a big long poem. Lol
Not much to say about rhyme, rhythm or pattern, and certainly nothing to say about language use. Interesting, I hope to see more from you and see what you've got. ~ Geezer.

I guess...

...most people are trapped in the five sense world which would mean the answer to most questions is yes. They may say the answer is the Truth or maybe not the Truth, even if they think the answer isn't the Truth, do they seek answers outside the normal programmed world...probably not.

Stepping outside the mainstream world of controlled media, religion, science, medicine & politics & seeing the truth behind the Problem/Reaction/Solution scenarios may allow them to open their eyes, ears etc & really see the world for what it is.

We live in a world of disinformation

I know all this because I read it on Facebook!! LOL!!

One.

Rhetorical questions!

Rhetorical questions are non -literal questions designed to emphasis an idea and encourage discussions.
It allows the reader a moment of pause and think about the question.
Mostly, not meant for an answer!
