In the land of honey alone can be found

a division of faith

a loss for words

a curious sage dreaming of the wicked thoughts of another

an abomination to some

a savior to others

a divining son

a follower of ways most ancient and whole

to live a dream as some before

a quest for knowledge

a philosopher of sorts

ancient text at his disposal

conscious thought to push boundaries

to question the fabric of dreams explained

to give new meaning to old theorum

give me a reason to do the same

as I will travel so will I falter

and regain my composure

and perhaps find I stumbled upon something new
