Whys
Lots of whys
in life:
Why this,
and not that?
And, dear Lord, of
all Your unlimited whys
why on earth this?!
And the whens, wheres
and hows
no less confounding --
explicitly, words do not
resolve themselves alone
dictionaries often shelf
what needs to be actively open
and boundless in mind --
the scholar paints
their arid landscapes
while the poet gives them
or-gasm --
