knowledge

the Library of Babel holds it all
and so, of information, it's devoid
each Truth and Error, be it great of small
is there in mixtures or pure, unalloyed
retrieval times tend towards the infinite
and formulating queries takes too long
to put your faith in what comes out of it
ignores that almost all of it is wrong
they're only data 'til we simplify
and analyse--not just enumerate
in getting beyond "what" to explore "why"
in simplifying, we communicate
among raw inputs, wisdom's hard to find
that has to come from a discerning mind
