Pursing All Powerful KnowledgeA Poem by The CrackenAn experiment to free ones mind of burdens long set in place at birth.Out of place, or rather, a misplaced being? I don't know anymore, eighteen years on this earth and yet, why is it I still know nothing? I wont be allowed to know anything for that matter. Surely I will be dead by the time untold truths lay there grace upon this earth. It would be far to late. I am doomed then. Doomed to a life of unknowing, merely, existing. What lies beyond the stars I see at night? Why is my mind bound to the knowledge of this planet? What lies beyond this realm I call home? Who's to say... My physical state (referring to my homosapien form), isn't capable of answering such questions. All I do know, is that I am not here for wealth. I am not here for fame. I am not here for justice or to bring peace. I am not here to burn down this society or even build it up above all others. But I, I am here simply to learn. I am, and will always be in existence to learn. I am a student of lie. The force that put me here is my teacher. It is a force that knows no boundaries. It strengthens off ones imagination. Suddenly, I do not feel like a fit pupil... How am I, I mere speck of dust on the scale of the universe, going to learn from the force that drives life itself? The answer lies within, and always will. Wielding the weapons this body blessed me with, I will follow my heart. I will hope the answers come to me some day, knowing all will be made right in the end. And I must use my imagination as my guide through times of trying to find reason. Misplaced? I am qualified for such a title? My mind swells at the thought of being here for a greater purpose. Does yours?
