I pierce into myriad domains hoping to find gratification but always seem to run into misconstrued images of the truth. Let me reiterate--I'm in a search for my wisdom! The attribute which reins supreme over physical dimensions detectable by the naked eye. I'm searching for a divine element that will male me righteous, make my thoughts transparent, and make me whole. I'm searching for wisdom that is pure and strong-- strengthening the pillars of my ebony soul. I'm searching for wisdom. Yes, Wisdom! For without it life is an impartial journey with no means or ends.
