The things that I surmise With my wide open eyes Are that I know absolutely nothing of my place in the cosmos And I don't mean to boast but I understand alot more than most But is this a gift or a curse, an inner voice asks whats the cost? This mind of mine, constantly fixated on the why The constant nagging of the pursuit of truth ticking away with the time Questions often asked come to no finite resolution They just fill my head with paralyzing smog and pollution Should i long to have the splendid peace of the simple fool, no This is my blessing and my burden, and my mind is my tool.
