Like it a lot- although contestably Afrocentric, and I'm sure quiet a few East Asian historians would be able to argue the origins of western philosophy as stated in this poem, as well as scholars of Hinduism and Buddhism- but that's just academic debate and doesn't take away from the fact that this poem is about trying out a different perspective and always learning and not taking anything for granted.
Below is a link to a poem that I wrote ages ago with pretty much the same title but on a different theme, but i think it compliments it well. Toast!
