Wishing for Ignorance

Wishing for Ignorance

A Poem by icaros13

I long for the bliss of nescience
I wish to renounce my powers of deduction
To blind myself to the obvious
So I can close my eyes without visions

How do I know
Where missing items can be found?
How do I know
Why there is anger, an inability to let go?

I've been here before, that's how

In a world where no one leaves, the hardest thing is to "know" in advance, when others are blind and must wait for all to unfold. This write suggests a pre-knowledge
of events to happen, yet powerless to prevent, thus anger I would imagine.

For we have thought the larger thoughts And gone the shorter way. And we have danced to devil's tunes, Shivering home to pray; To serve one master in the night, Another in the day. ..I do love.. more..
