All Too Well

we hold a profound

lack of insight into

all things around us,

yet, we seem to present

the facts differently

in that we know

all there is to know

about all we already know

and that

all else to know

about anything is not

worth knowing at all;

and, it is this contradiction

or misunderstanding

as some might say it to be,

is the fundamental reason

why I, myself, do not

want to hold a profound

lack of insight about

anything and everything

since all these others

perceive that they know

what they don't know

all too well they claim.
