So much to be answered for. Our expansive experience,

over months, quarters, decades broken down to moments

only when you think. Often, we don’t. Memory not always

faithful, not in hindsight. Affected we are more by what is

to come, always to be. Unseen. Realization or recognition? 

Knowing, not beholding, perception rarely accounted for

as we passively slip down some bothersome rabbit hole of 

unclassified information. It’s never what we need to know, 

but absorbed and appreciated for what it is. Trivia: traces of 

useless facts important only arbitrarily. Knowledge surpasses 

what we need to know, only when it isn’t so. Truly. Doubts 

and disbelief are tangible transactions, but only as factored 

into common denomination, erstwhile realties, utter guesses, 

undue speculation and assimilation of questionable meaning.
