What's Valentine

The thing that's invaluable to me
About his unusual biography
Is how much he wanted his own life
And to be about the hardest questions
To go straight toward the mystery
While never abandoning laughter
But to strive for something comprehensive
All-inclusive even of illusions
That lesser half of reality
Socrates would have been proud
That he wouldn't settle for anything
But the final answer to God
Even if he didn't find it he knew
It would be simple and beautiful
