Analysis of Veritas
From the ancients
to coevals
all the books
and journals
theorizing
and philosophizing
of scholars
and learned
clergy
and clerics
lecturing
and debating
on metaphysics
pontificating
with chitter and chatter
they fill gray spaces
Nevermind
those academics!
Meditate
and breathe out
the dust of ages
Gaze in awe
at the power
of the true Philosopher
and Sage
whose sermon is delivered
in a single flower
