"Doubt is the vestibule through which all must pass before they can enter into the temple of wisdom." - Charles Caleb Colton
Doubt is the vestibule,
and in the vestibule are many items -
hats, coats, and walking sticks.
The stick can help you stride through doubt.
Stride through doubt and up the stairs,
with, doubtless, many prayers
to reach all wisdom.
The stick can help you stride through doubt.
At the top is Colton's temple,
and from there look down the stairs
from whence you came...
Discard the stick - you've reached your aim.
