Hungering for truth



Keats at 25, dying in Rome of tuberculosis, 
Asserts, “Beauty is truth, truth beauty,” 
But is that truly all we need to know? 
If so, these flowers would be enough 
To sustain us, and while they do give comfort, 
I still hunger for the truth to be more obvious,
And more universally accepted.
