Reflections on Beyond

Be.
Beyond.
Be Yonder.

Always seeking
for answers
to solve the quandaries
of what is beyond.

What is too much
to know, to carry,
beyond what a mere human
should or need know?

What of the Who or the What
that is beyond –
looking below at
the wee one struggling so?

Reaching for truth
beyond her means
not to be found
since it’s out of bounds.

“It’s over your head,”
the man in the front declared
to the little girl with
raised hand in the air.

“We’ve told you all
that you need to know.
Stop fretting, now trust
us to hold it instead!”

Her questions continued
shaming them so,
revealing how little
they really did know!
