Pandora's Box.

Concepts enthroned on perishable gold,
Falling to dust as new ones unfold,
Intellect stretched on the rack of inquiry,
Knowledge recorded in dusty old diaries,
Ideas and thoughts, Inspirations proud wings,
Birthing theories regarded as factual things,
The human condition bound up in stone,
On which logics vile weeds have rooted and grown,
Lost is the wisdom of immortal mind,
Senses are muted and eyes are blind,
Infinities truths braided and locked,
In myths anathema, Pandora's Box.
