if you are looking for the truth,
you are to be a digger.
you are to be fearlessly meticulous in your exploration.
the surface truths are always there,
pulsing, easily plucked up with your pen
and deposited onto paper
do this, when you must
do this, but always remember
that there is more waiting
there is more to be found
more to explore than the simple
beauty or ugliness
attach a shovel to the end of your pen
aim it at your own chest
aim it at everything you love
aim it at everything you despise
your task is to
remind the world
that we must always
be searching.
