i can see how you would think that

those who are literate
are seen all over the planet
and yet only one catalogue
exists to document the voice

from the high sees
where it clearly isn't needed
to the great cavernous depths
seemingly lost forever

the only tangible essence
left to teach the dumb
unless you take the knowledge
of those that passed before

I have a feeling this will be solved pretty quickly, but we'll see how it goes
