Gravitational Pull

I center myself from within Toward the gravitational pull of the Ibis Toward the whiteness that I wish to wear Away from the darkness of despair. I am suspended from within. Suspended between the nothingness The nothingness between the evil and the right The nothingness between the darkness and the light. My lefthandness leading to my right To a possession of my memory not just for reminiscence But for wisdom and the sacred knowledge Of Theuth and of all the Earth. I do not want to be hearer of nothing I desire a reputation of understanding And care not for the approval or disapproval Of those of forgetfullness and Thebes who know not of the Ibis.
