Despite honesty

If it were understood
perfectly how grammar
is moral and morals
are grammatical, 

We would all go insane 
and treat each other
perfectly well forever.

Yet being as we are
all free, and must be,
we cannot understand 
anything perfectly.

Let alone that.  

It's probably for 
the best, in some
economy of ideals
where freedom is

by definition:

Best. Despite honesty,
sincerity and other virtues
would attest

it's not even
that great, really.
