The Unknown

As Humans, we function, move through life,

exist, with the ever present Unknown.

Making plans, appointments in daily planners, schedules,

tiptoeing around the abyss, in the dark, with our eyes closed.

At any moment, the Unknown could become Known,

but we would not be able to describe it or share the discovery.

The Shadow that follows, escapes our view, waiting, watching for the opportunity,

a misstep, or a blind fall, the reveal of the Unknown.
