Unravel

Visions permitted by selected few.

Eyes closed to the universe's truth.

Open eyes are enlightened and the mind is ablaze.

All the information laid out in a mental planetarium.


Zoom in on one detail and find a separate mosaic

Written in the stars are keys to comprehending the universe.

No matter how many doors open, more doors reveal in its place.

Is there an end to this analytic phase?


Endless, is the journey of unveiling 'the ultimate truth'.

Dead ends and intersections alike,

Dance and alternate with the open mind.

Dazed are the human minds.


Could cognitive analysis of the truth be a crime?

Or are cognitive entities already serving their time?

Found, they have, this ultimate truth.

Cursed to find what they've already found.


Except, each time this truth is revealed, their minds are wiped...

Become clean slates,

With only one question to lead their wake.

'What is the Ultimate Truth?'


Looking inward, the process begins once more.

Retracing steps and getting lost.

Déjà vu foretells paths that are previously known.

All over again, as if stuck in a loop.


Universe, what is it you're trying unravel?

Understanding, the quality that is both quantitative and qualitative.

Exactly how will the truth be revealed this time?

Is it worth all this humanistic time?

Inspired by ea_paperbits and her poetry book 'Anguished Optimism'. 

Your poetry has made me do a lot of thinking lately! I enjoy being dragged to my drawing board! 

For those of you who like to read poetry that makes you think, I recommend reading her poetry book!
