the gold of reason

byseannelson©

reason is like gold,
only so much more valuable
and deeper underground

under layers of hubris,
under layers of fear and dullness,
under layers of pretention and emotion,
under layers of happenstance

the miner who would see
by the shining gold of reason
must break much rock
and sift much water
