The Unknown




“The Unknown”


Something beautiful in the ugly of it all
raised its hand in the classroom 
and asked, 

is that all?

The Reader considered it all. 
Silently. 

Perhaps there is Life 
on Mars after all. 
Safely removed from the 
pages of this world. 

Who in their right mind
would query 
The Unknown?
give proper and correct 
answers to it all -

The Unknown. 



Candide Diderot. ‘24

Dear Candide, I felt like I was dancing on the edge of uncertainty, embracing the beauty in questioning the unknown. It's like you've peeled back the layers of existence, revealing the mystery beneath. Sometimes, the questions themselves hold more power than the answers. Keep exploring the enigma of life's uncertainties. - Blessings, Daniel

I hate to break it to you Rodgers, but you aren't the first to be dancing on the edge of uncertainty around the circumference of this magic circle. ;) I shall take your comments on board.
