The Thirst That Can Never Be Quenched - Seeking Knowledge
Poetry is the food of the soul. It's my greatest contribution to the world and an area I can always grow.
Circumnavigating the known truths of existence
Taking the paths of more resistance instead
Of those easy ones, of least
Questing for knowledge is a challenge
The journey itself an engagement,
One that sweetens later discovery
Reach inside to find your courage
Boldly and without hesitation
To begin requires but a single step forward
Propelling you evermore
Into the future while anchored in the past
An immersion into the truths yet undiscovered
With considerations of the past
Carefully interwoven into the thread
Accepting that settled means almost nothing
In our miniscule splinter of universal cognition
Familiarity with accepted normal
A security wrapping for the masses
Structurally accepting rather than deconstructing
Questioning those who question
Instead of speculating on the potential
And chasing the tail of discovery
When all seems simplified and justified
Question the rationale and motivations
Examine the interpretations
When every barren paths’ been trampled
No stone left unearthed
Questions questioned
Answers answered and answered again
Pause and then ask another
For the thirst for knowledge
Cannot easily be quenched
