Epiphany

Epiphany

A Poem by hypochondrita

There is something very magical 
About a moment of epiphany
The sudden visualization 
Of every puzzle piece...
Simply clicking.
The big picture shows its face
Oh, what an ethereal sight!
Nurturing an illusion
That claims you stepped out of oblivion
And maybe finally comprehended
A small bit of the reality that surrounds you
And shapes the person you are
Into forms not even geometry can understand
But the truth is 
Every step foward
Comes with a breeze
That blows you two steps back
The universe is a tricky thing, dear
It doesn't want to be understood
All because there's no fun in answers
They're never as good
As our imagination wants them to be
The chase to put an end to a question
Now that's what truly moves mankind
Interest lies in mystery
Not knowing where the odds will take you next.

People like to think they're rational beings
Though too distracted to notice 
They're the biggest predators out there
Always driven by the hunt...
 
The hunt for meaning.
