all was not known!
All was not known
yet each stood in a Home, saying:
We know! we Know.
but all was not known
And the dimness hung over their heads
wherever they went
It drifted low, and drifted High
It blocked out parts of the Sky!
because they did not know
What they Did Not Know
In labels, and categories
They toiled their Time away
day after day, to say it just right
How wrong they had it, just so
At this point in time, but not tomorrow
When new understanding would come
and enlighten them. About something more
something missing, something that the Spirit
would bring to their attention
and at last, after many a mile, ten years from now
they would stop on the road And say:
WE DID NOT KNOW
