Truth Beyond the Event Horizon

A true scientist cannot see

into the heart of things, like me.

He is limited by the facts

instead of how the soul reacts.

Instead of mind he sees a brain;

intuition doesn’t remain.

All his senses are only five.

A sixth sense will never survive.

We poets and spiritual elves

are never confined to ourselves.

The cosmic consciousness we glimpse

reserved for us curious imps.

I am sorry for the poor soul

trapped in an imagined black hole.
