What Made the Poet Seem a Magician
What made the poet seem a mystic
was that, not seeing All, he could nonetheless see
the limits of Seeing
and therefore saw the limits of Mind—
That, being a Creature, he understood that Creaturehood needs Knowledge
only to the point of acquisition
of sufficient Stimulus to trigger Instinct
And that Instinct, triggered,
proceeds to its Conclusion
regardless of Knowledge
and the ramifications of Outcome
For the purpose of Instinct
is the provision to Creaturehood
of the facility to proceed in certainty
Unknowing.
