Please forgive my excursion from the Poetry Forum to the Plato Forum...
Knowledge?
If only I were more erudite
on all that Socrates has taught,
what a treatise might be brought before us
which we might in unison then sing
and on the wings of understanding
now with that poetry within
take flight to the highest summit
of all knowing of all things.
Then we would survey the landscape
and know all which is perceived
resides in Our very being
and is no longer just imagined
to be otherwise conceived.
