The Unknown World

It’s all you ever wanted
To visit, the unknown world.
All you needed to explore.

Does anyone really doubt
It’s vaster than the known world,
Probably by multiples?

Unknown’s not unknowable,
But that world’s definition,
Plus your awareness you know

Much less than you don’t know
Should convince you the unknown
Is as good as a cosmos

Of its own—you have so much
You might come to know no one’s
Ever known any before—

Just days in the unknown world
Would make you an explorer
Of the first water. There’s more,

Likely infinitely more,
Unknown from edges to core.
Oh to ever so slightly

Reduce the staggering, vast
Expanse of the recently,
Wonderfully unknown world.
