In order to arrive


.
.

In order to arrive there,
 .
To arrive where you are,
To get from where you are not,
You must go by a way
Wherein there is no ecstasy.
 .
In order to arrive at what you do not know
You must go by a way
Which is the way of ignorance.
 .
In order to possess what you do not possess
You must go by the way
Of dispossession.
 .
In order to arrive at what you are not
You must go through the way
In which you are not.
 .
And what you do not know
Is the only thing you know
And what you own is what you do not own
And where you are is where you are not.
 .
~  T.S. Eliot
