WHY
Three letters
commanding attention
Three letters
the bone of contention
One syllable
bigger than Everest
One syllable
birthing our interest
Questioning forward
questioning back
Answering tightly
answering slack
Words that fall silent
words that delight
Trapdoor to darkness
— gateway to light
WHY

I was always taught that it was one question never to ask as it begs for justification and has no real answer. A great write Kurt
Thanks, and I agree. It is a 'bone of contention.'
