No matter what you know,
someone is always wanting to correct you,
to sell you a list of goods,
from the shop marked 'authority'.
All the 'authorities' got
frozen into stone
years ago after the great flood
wiped out original knowledge,
and left behind only these granite shadows.
Reality is always soft clay,
ever shifting and changing its shape.
Fire it into form, and
at the very moment
you are hailing it as final truth
it will break in your hands.
---- Dorothy Walters
