We should write what we know, and what do we know?
What we learn through the lens of our experience,
Unique, for any one of us, what seems to be true.
But not the most reasoned of scholars nor chaste of priests,
Can ever really know, or understand, that truth.
The nearest is what we should reasonably do.
What is right, or even wrong, within reason?
As long as we do what we know we ought,
It might be that we come reasonably close.
As far as we are true, within the rights and the wrongs,
Then that, surely, is what we ought to.
