what we don't know 5/26/20

what we don't know 
is always fighting back
as a constant battle of muted-ness emerging.
there is no confessional in which they participate.
no brain-washing, no cross examination occurs.
if we reverse engineered not-knowing,
we'd have nothing.
the upheaval is in every direction.
tight-lipped, non-expressive 
beyond the obvious, done as distraction.
I wouldn't call it silence,
just zealous preoccupied resistance,
an adherence to a means 
beyond our innocent inquiry.
sure, there is a level of cooperation
but mostly as a prop or a tool
or a dedicated means beyond our standards.
but offer up clarity, short-cuts, 
unseen efficiencies not yet discovered?
sure, clues may be gotten
but outright pouring of the essence
to further our deeper sense of cause,
nope. 
it's all up to us,
certainly, by the methods, we use.
and what do we get for our efforts?
expertise, but still the further blackout exists.
no blurting, no forthright disclosure,
just careful eavesdropping on our part,
just to get to the know.
we can get how it is
but it is still separately theirs.
known or not known 
makes no difference to them.
it's all on us
to make something else out of known 
that comes from the discovery of the unknown . . .
