Ode to Young Philosopher.

You say truth's like clockwork,
and all we need to do to achieve this
human efficiency is
put aside all our emotions, our personal drives.

I can't do that.
And I know you can't do that.
In a perfect world, we would all be
pieces of a beautiful machine, but
I know no one can ever be perfect.

We have greed.
We have lust.
We can't achieve this communal beauty-
we're too flawed.

Your level of consciousness far exceeds mine,
but I've experienced more.
We can't find truth.
Love will always get in the way.
