Je Ne Je Ne Sais Quoi


Science is a tool to skew the world,

in form its weakness shows

 

To measure, rate, and catalog,

what in essence stays unknown

 

I’m not against its formulas,

but the philosophy it breeds

 

Its laws to serve and fertilize 

—a deeper planted seed

 

(Tolentine Hall: February, 2021)
