That's the greatest task

to learn and thus be wiser-

reflexive, retroview, grayscale.

to feel my life in spiral time

feeling through and feeling in

to feel to feel to feel again.

To feel into each moment

cry into lessons, lean into delight

absorb the wild world.

Learn, learn, learn.

Suck out the wet knowledge 

beaconing as too long glances,

staring, penetrating eyes.

Pull on the tethered neurons

syncing, tug of war, wisdom

in the past, encrypted in my DNA,

pause and listen, the books

it took man ten thousand years to write

all resides within us, outside us,

Ripe for the taking. Learn more

from a rogue bee than all the men.
