Nothing To Explain


Marvin Gaye: Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)



Do you not think
that there are things
which you cannot understand,
and yet which are;
that some people see things
that others cannot?
But there are things
old and new
which must not be
contemplated by men's eyes,
because they know---
or think they know---
some things which
other men have told them.
Ah, it is the fault
of our science
that it wants to explain all;
and if it explain not,
then it says
there is nothing to explain.
--Bram Stoker

If you drink much from a bottle marked poison
it is certain to disagree with you sooner or later.
