A Reminder Of My Mission

Sometimes I’m like the rock

Placed by the sea

The waves constantly wash over me

It’s my job to protect the land from the sea

Like the pyramid encloses Pharaoh

The same way I enclose the sea

Without the possibility of action, all knowledge comes to one labeled ‘file and forget,’ and I can neither file nor forget.
— Ralph Ellison
