Ode To Guru

From his perch high above the clouds
the great ancient guru contemplates
the meaning of life
in all it’s many mysteries

Mining truth and ever elusive faith
in continuous darkness

A girl named Epiphany drops by
bearing the gift of sweet revelation
that the older we get
the less we know

For every day is a unique situation
until the sum experience accumulation
overwhelms the soul's capacity
to store and sort truth
from misguided faith
