Curiosity

How you wish all was known
and that all secrets were told
yet I know to stay in the dark
when all you want is shown
you have no more life to hold.
Curiosity hunts like a shark
mindful, left free to roam,
but knowledge is better learnt than told,
and most dangerous to hold mark.
Soft tongues shatter hard bone,
when the meaning of life is cheaply sold.
Curiosity is a deceptive demon, coarser than bark.
