Berryseed Goulash

One problem with knowing is knowing
What to do with everything you know.
(See histories of espionage

For cases in overabundance.)
The more sources of information
At your command, the more conflicting.

Information is tricky like that.
It’s physical and measurable,
But it isn’t always meaningful,

No matter how richly laced with seeds.
The difference between knowing something
And knowing the meaning of something

Is the difference between the signal
And the consequence of the signal.
Information’s scat; meaning’s a bear.
