Poems and Words

Knowledge is a fragile thing

You may know or you may not

Sometimes we think we've found the truth

Then all we have is lost

I've never been particularly fond of poetry. A few lines randomly or thoughtfully put together - then suddenly they're supposed to mean so much more than the words they're composed of. I've never understood it. Then again, maybe I just haven't found the one poem that means more to me than I can explain.

I do like words though. I've always liked words. They just don't have to be poems. Poems are pompous. Words are humble.
