My longing for knowledge
is quelled by belief that
knowing nothing is
infinitely more freeing
than knowing it all.
Faith in blissful ignorance,
God is an endless abyss
and we are all teetering
on the pungent brimstone,
praying for a gust of wind.

My longing for knowledge

Faith in blissful ignorance,
God is an endless abyss
and we are all teetering
on the pungent brimstone,
praying for a gust of wind.
