Tranquility Base,
Damn I like bright way better than quite, beautiful, thank you!
As one becomes thine knowledge plight
A fool declares, thou proof alas!
This is at the beginning of the poem, it is the first mistake a human can make in the pursuit of wisdom, and it is to confuse wisdom with knowledge. We tend to gather a lot of information and "know" alot, but do not know how we use or incorporate that knowledge in a healthy way, which propels us to be our demise. This verse was actually a personal reference, I've had a few in my life, including my own father, who get caught up in these conspiracy theory rabbit holes, and ending taking their own life, that is why I used "thy knowledge plight"
