The Unknown

As we know,

There are known knowns.

There are things we know we know.

We also know

There are known unknowns.

That is to say

We know there are some things

We do not know.

But there are also unknown unknowns,

The ones we don't know

We don't know.

Spoiler! :
Donald Rumsfeld is poetic.......? since when?

I thought that it was fairly clever in some aspects, but highly cliche in others. It felt in this line like you were trying too hard:

As we know,

There are known knowns.

There are things we know we know.

We also know

There are known unknowns.

That is to say

We know there are some things

We do not know.

It seems as if someone has done this type of thing before. But it was entertaining, made me giggle a little. And I have to give you props for the spelling! For so many repetitive words I know I would've messed up alot. Keep writing!
