The Antidote to Answers

I am ready to give up
the galloping
insatiable
desire to know.
The drive to find
the right answer
to whatever
perplexes
confounds
or confuses the mind.

This horse has ridden me long
and I must dismount,
fall,
really,
to the ground of my being,
rest in the soft loam of my uncertainty
and, like Rilke,
learn to love the questions themselves.

  1. Perhaps, sometimes its fun to KNOW the answer and sometimes the fun is in the SEARCH for the answer. Just a thought.... :-)
