Knowing

 Knowing about anything

Can lead to something,

Creates a path for one to walk on

Distorts others that one treads lightly on.

 

Knowing an action

Will lead to a reaction,

One that boost one to salvation

But that would also bring damnation.

 

Knowing a person

Should bring about certainty,

One can find those of kindness

But can also find those of bitterness.

 

Knowing part of the world

Brings about different expectations,

One can expect it to be constant

But should always expect the inconsistent.

 

Knowing can be painful

Not knowing can be equally stressful,

Knowledge can be powerful

But then, do you really need it?
