" Willfully Ignorant "

An Installment of Poetry by The Art Guy



Knowledge is an empty box

As useless as if filled with rocks

Lacking gnostic comprehensive thoughts

We G(k)now a pinch of sand


One mind perspectives do deter

To see the dots is to confer

The lack of connections with which we flaunt is the

Ignorance to which they all refer


Stupidity can not ever excuse

What conceals the thinly veiled abuse

Our minds are mirrors, what you see is inside

Abuse not unto others but unto self you wish to hide


Spread the healing, don’t guard the gate

It comes from fear one did innovate

If all you offer the world is malice

Then all you give yourself is hate


Are humans inherently evil to the core

Or are we born as kernels of goodness, made sore

With Infinite perspectives in this life

We never truly know each others’ strife


You can choose to extend beyond your mind

First you must realize you are of the same kind

Lack of knowledge takes blame for the moral floor

Though, isn’t it still our fault if we don’t want to know more?
