    The knife

     

     A knife has two sides

     A side to bring joy

      A side to bring sorrow

    The knife I have used

     The side of joy through taste

      The knife
           I have used through the taste of doing

       The eyes are different.

    The eyes of joy speak of the great taste

      The eyes of doing
           look upon with ended known

    The eyes of the knife bring you to where?

      They bring to look upon the joy

      My relish of the knife is double edged

    The concept I agree is very thought provoking but i think your ideas need to be stuctured to a core idea or message you wish to convey to the reader just a though and you may want to use look over some of the context in the your words just a thought.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
