Awakened eyes
See all in truth
Beauty in little
And a little in beauty

For this reason
The drive grows passively
To escape the known world
And into the unknown

Hiding significant reality
Crumbles one's existance
To mere limbo,
A search for comfort

An open mind
Contemplates the answers
A jealous heart
Starves for knowledge

The "intelligent people" recite
And are classicly trained to answer
When true intelligence
Is found in a child
