Grasping

A Poem by John Prophet

Grasping.
Gasping.
for
understanding,
knowledge.
Philosophical
gymnastics,
religion.
Spinning
a safe
place.
Scaffolding
built.
Easing fear,
tension.
Mythology
expands.
Evolves.
Understanding
wrapped
in ignorance.
Gods to
explain.
Explain the
unexplainable.
Humanity’s
capacity
limited.
Universal
truths
beyond
reach.
Mythology,
philosophy,
religion.
Filling
the infinity
void.
Holding
it all
together.
