Ode to Knowledge

You come in different levels and intensities
You swamp through every person every day
So subtle and light or so hectic and strained
You come in and make a person so interesting and bright
Outsiders look in so amazed at the light
Some envy the person's abundance of you
While others are too ignorant to see
But to some people you never stop giving
Little by little their insides begin to shrivel
With headaches dominating their night and day
Permanently smearing away the happiness and life
You are a treasure but also a curse
You are knowledge and thought on Earth
