The Right Answer
To any question is….
“I don’t know.”
From there
Comes enlightenment
Not that, I don’t know
The right answer
But rather that
” I don’t know,”
Is the right answer
Let’s test it…
Q : Why do you work?
The answer is not
Because I need the money or
I like what I do or
I am helping others. It is
A: ” I don’t know.”
By saying I don’t know
Circumstantially forces one’s self
To ask better questions
Not so much to get to
The right answer
But perhaps a better one
Because the truth is
One does not know
Why they do
What they do
Here is a different angle (RA = Right Answer)
Q: Why do you breathe ?
A: Because I am alive / RA: ” I don’t know.”
Q: Why are you alive?
A: Because I was born / RA: ” I don’t know.”
Q: Why were you born
A: Ummm, irresponsible parents / RA: ” I don’t know.”
Q: Why irresponsible parents
A: ” I don’t know ” / RA: ” I don’t know.”
Now we are getting somewhere
How can you have been “born”
When everything that makes you up
Has always been, already here
It has merely changed structure
On a quantum molecular level such as
“Breathing” in O²
Exhaling C0²
Meanwhile, “You” didn’t do 💩
It is all an energy exchange
Which can all be broken down
To its component parts
Yet, it still does not explain
Why do you breathe ?
RA: ” I don’t know.”
Doubt and not knowing
Always bring me to a happy place
Because I can get lost
In infinite inquiry
Before returning to
This dense dimension
Never finding the right answer
While knowing the right answer
A: ” I don’t know.”
“I never wish to be right,
Only to be understood,
If you have questioned
Your beliefs. Then maybe,
I have done some good. “
