Knowledge is but experience
Made conscious of itself.
~~
We have sought a thousand times to teach
Our knowledge; we are mocked by speech.
~~
While this one soul of thought is sure
Through all confusion to endure,
Infinite Truth in one small span
This that is God is Man.
~~
So the adept is called insane
For his frank failure to explain.

lines of length,
a conversation
of much import
from which I
stole but a part
a clever line here
a profundity there
and thus misrepresents
the work as a whole.
