the rock Essays - Knowledge, Belief, Ignorance, Wisdom, Eagle Soars

The Eagle takes off in the culmination of Heaven, The Hunter with his pooches seeks after his circuit. O never-ending upset of designed stars, O never-ending repeat of decided seasons, O universe of spring and fall, birth and kicking the bucket The perpetual pattern of thought and activity, Perpetual creation, unending examination, Brings information on movement, yet not of tranquility; Information on discourse, yet not of quiet; Information on words, and numbness of the Word. All our insight brings us closer to our numbness, All our obliviousness brings us closer to death, In any case, proximity to death no closer to GOD. Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the intelligence we have lost in information? Where is the information we have lost in data? The patterns of Heaven in twenty centuries Bring us more remote from GOD and closer to the Dust.
