42

ancient knowledge 

times far gone,

eludes us.

always within reach,

yet ungraspable.

humanity fell 

in the forgetting.

constantly, 

collectively...

we are in search 

of rumored,

else concealed 

velveteen scrolls,

containing answers 

to all unknowns

if we're lucky, 

perhaps—

an understanding 

of the obscure 

meaning 

         of humble 

                      forty two. 

what is the question?

humanity stands up 

in remembering.
