Cartography

I want to fill the gaps in understanding
not with words or thoughts but
something different, something new
which isn't noisy, doesn't clutter,
cuts a path to something like solution,
meaning, all the things to aim for,
brings me close to what I hope is you.

All the rest is cells and their components,
all the rest is stumbling, reaching blind,
drawing maps with empire-building frenzy,
scoffing at the dark that's left behind.
