Knowledge is found it is found in the books
I study and work to find the answers
Knowledge I seek with rash’ quick eyes I look
I will gain knowledge to give the dancers
Those fools who do dance in circles at night
They love and hold hands and live for one day
Then wakeup again to revive in the light
They say he who must seek does not know the way
These words are for fools and not worth knowing
Knowledge is taught and far more worth growing
These fools are bearers they say of wisdom
Such life without books and walls a prison
Words spoken from fools whose knowledge is read
Wisdom is peaceful not learned and not fed

I am the two-toed wanderer

You have what it takes to be a great poet
not like so many whom will never be one.
