Handed Wisdom:


Bless the lord be it so
That I have no friend and no foe.
With everything I learned, I stop to say
That being alone is the only way.
And I am wise and one who knows
About all directions in which water flows.

Be it by satin or the demons devine
That I am in search in soul to find
A man who coughs life essense in form,
And needs no chance to be but warned
About the dangers in this horrible place,
So he live without guidance and without a chase.

I live to see in what I do,
All in due time I will come to you,
And preach about philosophy and ways of time
So you can do anything and call it mine.
But for now my son, you are alone at home
Soon to be set free and forever roam.

I'll see you when the horizon shines,
And where all trees are known as pines.
See you then my innocent son,
All your learning has just begun,
All your sins will be known as relief,
And until then you start your belief.




I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I am glad you liked this one. I was obsessed with the idea of WISDOM during this wave. This is when I started to fully enjoy and probe the inners of philosophy.

Kick @$$ read here. I wasn't around when you joined us, but let me say that you're right where you should be, @ HOME among the warriors of literature---the cyber poets.

Thomas A. Plemmons

Let not a word go unspoken,
A thought go unheard,
Let not one heart be broken
Dream of a perfect world.

WOW...
As fools confound the wise...

We are but fools on this lush plane of existenz. If the poets of yore could but see us now, casrrying on the legacy in a greater fashion than they ever dreamed. Dylan Thomas, eat your heart out!

A life unmarked, obscure and alone,
So let me die;"

cool


Chosen to live a joyful life,
Blessed with a huge heart,
Day to day I live the life,
Live the life brought to me,
So much unshared love yet to giv
