What Is the Purpose

What is the purpose of sight,
if not for perception?

What is the purpose of perception,
if not for the mind?

What is the purpose of the mind,
if not for interpretation?

What is the purpose of interpretation,
if not for understanding?

What is the purpose of understanding,
if not for wisdom?

What is the purpose of wisdom,
if not for sharing?

What is the purpose of sharing,
if not for love?

What is the purpose of love,
if not for the infinite?

What is the purpose of the infinite,
if not for the soul?

What is the purpose of the soul,
if not for a purpose?

So what is the purpose of any of this,
if not for you?
