Beyond Ignorance is Awareness


This is nonsensical I received a fatal wound Inside of my convertible Which actually led me to this mountain An epiphany sprouted from the muck that lays in the lake That no witchcraft is strong enough to remake this scenario Sprout not what you think will occur But understand the value of a sudden change of direction Wisdom and experience Are not what one can understand through their senses It is what one lives through Imagine the shock if one went ignorant Oblivious to the fact that they were naive Only to find themselves in a mountain with a fatal wound Stuck in the muck inside of their convertible Just to find out their lack of understanding Their existence in the world is for a certain reason Driving to the west side of the mountain A goat rammed into the convertible I hit not only a goat but his kid I stirred the car off into the lake Unaware of my cut in my arm at the time In that muck sprouted an awareness On how silly my view on life was However it is now known Whether it got across to you Or if you are lost
