Hmm, and even they will question I suspect. |

Monk - Perhaps the unsure need a light that the pure already have. That's a poser Monk. Nicely done. Namyh |

How can there be an exception to 'none'? It seems pretty black and white to me - either no one is sure OR the pure are sure (in which case, you can't say that "none" are sure). Is this the point? Or is there a point? Maybe none are sure except the obscure. Alison fades into obscure purity |

Yo Monk Frost I!, What is "pure"? So who's pure? How does one become pure? I think I remember being something like "pure". Bobby |

I don't think I've been pure since the age of 4......Or was that 7? I'm not sure.... Oh! Now I remember. It was some sort of yoke....(chuckle)  |

Is this poem perhaps a euphemism for embracing dogmatic truths and received wisdom to shield oneself from the myriad uncertainties and perils of the real world? If it is then I am going to die laughing. If not then I am deeply sorry for my misinterpretation. Although I cannot read any other meaning into this. Never sigh for a better world, it's already composed, played and told. |
