To not forgive is bitter root

That grows with enveloping tendrils

That grasp the heart and fruit

Therein distress of soul and ill will.

...and at those days
when the dusks fall down the abyss with
the dawn of unknowledge held in each grasp
you will ask... no more questions.

In a heterogeneous audience
To some it is too simple and
To some it is too hard to grasp
What is said, so both are bored.

I have mocked many things.
Most of them were beyond my grasp.
I have mocked such things
For which I had unfulfilled desire.

Something grand
on a scale
yet to be conceived
reaching to the stars
and beyond
seeming within the grasp
of our imagination.
