Many of my poems have been created on or inspired by Twitter. Sometimes I receive brilliant replies or questions, and here is one such interaction between @mzungundege and myself. Very thought-provoking, don’t you think?
Evidence of the unknown
Is greater than that of the known
If only you would stop your search
In the temple mosque or church
Our known known is we have no evidence
To prove our religions’ dogmas
Our known unknown is the future of our universe
Our unknown unknown?
Our unknown unknown lies within us…
Now there is something to believe in

Thanks for the inspiration @mzungundege
Powerful, deep, haunting in a way that it lingers and lingers without any answer

Known and unknown seems to be two friends, waiting to find themselves. :)

Dear Sonya,
This stretches the mind and shows me that most of what I think I may know is really quite nothing.
All good wishes,

It is better to know nothing than to know everything.
