Transcendental Numbers

I explained
how it was
but not why.

You explained
why it was
without knowing.

I thought
of explaining
so that
you would know
but then
was it really
about knowing
or was it
really about avoiding?

If you knew,
it would do
no good.

Not knowing,
it serves
as a buffer
you can use
to avoid knowing.

Knowing
and not knowing
end up
the same.

You don't know why
and why you think
is not
in the ball park.

As long
as I know,
you can think
what you want
and it does not
bother me now
because
at least
I know,
even if you
would not
and never will listen.

I only wanted
to hear it
from you:  
Everything.
