Questions

What is objective truth?
Laws of science, religion, and culture
Change with each generation,
As easily as a person's mood.

In a universe where nothing is still,
Can anything truly be defined?

Question, so many questions,
Leaving nothing but more queries behind,
Each beckoning to the curious,
And those blind to the eternal scale.

Why do I try the possible?
Why will pride not allow me peace?

Is it better to be ignorant in bliss
Or to stare into the amoral soul of creation?
I cannot stop my yearning now,
For I have tasted the fruit of knowledge.

To turn away is naught but cowardice.
To submit is the path to despair.

Would I want to hold stars and sands
If such a fate is truly knowable?

Welcome to my island within the cosmos,
Where only the brilliant fool survives.
