POEM: Lesson Learned | |
If I’ve learned anything, | |
if the years of schooling and the degrees have done me any good, | |
if the stacks of books that have passed before my eyes shed any light, | |
it’s the recognition of the ubiquity of darkness, | |
& | |
of the fact | |
that it’s better to learn to cautiously navigate the cave | |
than to pretend there’s no darkness. | |
