Open a book of calculus
before a thrid-grader.
Apart from stumbling
over certain symbols,
she can read the text,
but to what end, not
knowing such great truths,
alien to her being, exist,
much less what they mean
or how to use them. We
praise only the graspable truths
of kindergarten while daily walk-
ing past inestimable calculuses.
