On Writers

People write about the things they know
(Like writing, places, hobbies, love, and death)
Or they will write about the things they cannot know
(Like God, themselves, the future, love, and death)
But why they do not turn the things
That they could learn into more things to know
I cannot fathom.

So in this way writers betray their limitations,
Or their ingenious ways of covering them up.
