Analysis of Non Visceralis



Knowledge is not a paradigm,
but a bridge to something else

Its path to stay unmeasured,
when crossing into self

Devoid of polar opposites,
where beauty exits truth

To steal away, a soul relayed
—its burden stripped of proof

(Saint David’s Pennsylvania: November, 2020)
