TRUE WISDOM
True wisdom ain't jaded
The fates sang it
And saints prayed it
This same cadence
Illuminated ways that’s archaic
I’m of a different sort
Sifting through the shores
Of what my mind is
Cannabis and Psilocybin
You?
Haven’t been to realms
That I’ve been
I am Searching to surpass
Perception and temporal guises
Fine sight at
The black of my eyelids
And now I see my own disguises
And I wish my name was Midas
I’m mighty, but gotta
Give a fuck about a stipend
Civilization says
“Like, save money man
This the land of
milk and honey and
It’s all yours,
Just work till
You got bloody hands
You Understand?
That’ll make you happy
Do this, do that
And then go raise a family
Shit, and if you don’t want to
Then that’s just wrong dude
You musta picked up the wrong cue
Like who raised you?”
Ooo, bitch, Jesús!
I pulled up to heaven
Before birth like “hey Zeus”
He said “hey, I’m glad you came thru —
Aye dude, shit down there is fucked
They emphasize propriety
In society and all they do is judge
Go be a leader with the pencil led
And do as we discussed
So I’m here now
All up in your ears now
Hear, bow
Fear, doubt
Do either all or none of the above
Just understand that all that matters
Are things from up above, uh

Re: TRUE WISDOM
Hey Walter! I thought this was a cool piece! Very short bars made for a quick pace read, good stuff stacking the multi though, made for an ever smoother read. Concept felt pretty free-versy but it was cool, thanks for the read

Re: TRUE WISDOM
Thanks a lot for the reply!
The ambiguity of the underlying concept is something I struggle with in most of the things I write and am working heavily on that...
I'm really glad you enjoyed it
