Every time I leave the security of ignorance for that tempting knowledge, I take my feet from this secure stone floor and begin walking on thin ice. Tread carefully I tell myself because this could end badly. I see a chance of a prize at the end of this path, a very risk path. But the reward is all too tempting. So I put on a mask and take my nimble movements across the ice. The mask is most likely useless as such intentions oft are impossible to disguise no matter what kind of bottled innocence you drown them in. So as I make my way across the ice I notice the prize is set up in a trap, I'll need deft fingers to remove it. Yet the risk of failure for this aspect is also great, I'm already half way across the ice so I'll push on. I don't believe in turning back in matters such as these. So through my light touch I reach the end, I see the prize and the trap. The prize can still be revealed to be knowledge of no use or worth to me or something else of disappointment. But I have the means, I have the intention but all I need now is... 'Further reason to prompt action'.
You may think this a stunted and blunt ending, but who said this has ended? The words have merely danced from the paper and back into my reality.
♫ A seven nation army couldn't hold me back!♫
