KNOWING IS NOT KNOWING

Upon the faulty
Inputs of memory
And self identity
One pretends to remember
One pretends to comprehend
And tries to function
Within in the ever changing
Landscape of self
And reality
For reality doth not change
It remains a constant
And unchangeable event
Yet the viewer, the participants
And the spectators
All shall see the event
Change as life itself
Changes for the ability
To comprehend, see,
Mold and come to
An partial understanding
Of that which is beyond
Their finite abilities.
None of human comprehension
Have any truth in their
Thoughts, they are simply
Misled by the fact
That they change
In the ever non-changing
Reality that surrounds them.
That one brief flash of what is
Before them to soon become
Behind them
And to linger in their
Thoughts, their memories
Their existence
As they struggle
To comprehend
Even what that one brief
Flash upon their screen
Means for the rest
Of their life.
Their is no human comprehension
Their is only an acceptance
To what hath transpired
To continue one on
In their journey
To the forever
That awaits them
In the temporary journey
Of their perceived temporary
Moments that exist
Beyond the moment
And change beyond the moment
And grow upon reflection
Into more then
The self thought those moments
Were when first encountered.
So boast not to thyself
That you comprehend,
That you know,
That you understand
For tomorrow one simple
Light may fall upon your
Wisdom and bring
A whole new understanding
To that one thing you
Thought you knew so well.
Sit not in your thoughts
And think not but
Experience and have open faith
That your temporary understanding
Of the infinite is the best
You can do and humble yourself
To this reality
And open yourself to
The wisdom of knowing
That you are not capable
Of knowing at all
And not even knowing yourself.
