A Challenge

 

 

Time and space are constant

For a never ending spectrum

Of an ever changing crystal

 

The shinning light of life

Is only ever dimmed

It never must go dark

In darkness lies our fears

Irrational, illogical,

Irreverent and base

Our fears are our defense

Of things we cannot know

Ignorance is a sickness

That eats away our reason

And fear is at the hub of this

 

If time and space are constants

The spectrum never ending

Then all in time will come to us

That knowledge is our future

Because the crystal changes

And never is the same

Then life can hide her secrets

For us to rise again

If all were known

And nothing dim

How boring life would be

Nothing for the changing man

To shake his smug facade

 

Those trials in life are needed

To keep our minds alert

A challenge for the spirit just

Is how we know its real.
