DOOR TO DOORS
The lingering question
lingers on.
Fingers flipping through
the encyclopedia, glue
my eyes on Wikipedia
trying to figure out why we are here.
Door lead to doors
lost in the days of Tudors
The era of Renaissance
Jahiliyyah, the period of ignorance.
Took a dive into Euphrates
swimming back in time to save Socrates
interrogating Aristotle and Plato
my astral plane froze in Pluto,
clinging onto Oduduwa's chain,
Time ticking, the hour glass drains,
anticipating utopia,
I awoke in Ethiopia.
Seeking keys to unlock
mysteries from Darwin or John Locke,
inside the mountain I snuck up on Mohammed,
Jihadist strive to have me beheaded.
For undiluted answers
I questioned st Aquinas
his Revelation was the Genesis
of my unending mental crisis.
Banging on the doors
of Christ their Lord Jesus
to quench my thirsty for eternity
and be fed at Galilee
I waiver for the fear of hell
if ultimately I fell
into Buddah's temple to visit Guru Maharaji
maybe his promulgation might come in handy.
Confused on who to follow
Zeus, Prometheus or Apollo?
Resisting the cave in
found myself in the caves in
which Egyptian mummies laugh
my tummy starve
Curiosity is hunger,
curiosity is cancer,
we'll all die without
figuring nothing out.
