ignorance

everybody knows
what those blind men
thought of the elephant
but when they get into
speculation about
how the world was
created, they cannot see
their blindness, why
nobody knows

nobody knows
why what happened
before time, what is
outside the space,
why the world was created
are erroneous questions
but that
when, where, why
before, outside
are words of time,
space, causation
everybody knows

everybody knows
they are this
they are not that
yet who the self is
nobody knows

nobody knows
who the inevitable
player is
but who the waker, the dreamer,
the deep sleeper is
everybody knows

everybody knows the
havoc the world
is subjected to, that it
is a prey, everybody knows
but that the predator is
the ignorance, nobody knows,
that it is neither good
nor evil
nobody knows
