What I Do Know

Image: Origin Unknown

I'm not built
for the small
or superficial -

for the cloudy or
that which lacks rigorous integrity.

In a world
which devours these things
like fetid sweets
I could revel
in feral hermitude.

But I don't have to.

For,

No matter the illusion
of silence, distance,
and time,

I'm blessed to
know a conversation
that never ends.
