T here is no knowledge – only
good opinion.
H appiness is not afraid of pain.
E ach truth is limited to its dominion.
Y ears sweep away one's walls again, again.
E veryone knows better in their hearts,
A lthough their hearts know better than to know.
R eason is a razor's edge that parts
O bjects from the fullness of their flow.
F ortune is a poor excuse for failure.
T he only help one needs is what one gives.
H ard work and happiness extend one's tenure,
E ver more alive the more one lives.
D eath is a prerequisite of time,
R evealing far more than it ever hides.
A ll is limitless, yet etched in lines,
G raven images of what abides.
O ne dragon, yes, can harmonize a song,
N eeding only dreams to sing along.
H appiness is not afraid of pain.
