Temptations of Insight

Rollicking back to those epiphany moments;
those clarity-filled seconds of salvation.
Where attaining your desires was quite simply
having the courage to pursue them.

Revelry consumes, yet oft confuses–
as with the truth comes how to manage it.
Ere we get lost amongst the brain waves,
only to be slaves of these yet-to-come future days.

Though in some ways we crave this edenistic apple;
that catastrophe of knowledge–
if only to tempt ourselves with feigned action,
mere doppelgangers pursuing passion.

It comes back to initiative, the gory mess of fulfilling.
These instances; those precious uprisings of courage,
riding the crest of our inner workings,
only bring contentment in the trial of the search–
where the real truth is the only one worth knowing.
