(OF WISDOM AND INSANITY)
And what of wisdom the hardest possession to obtain.
It lurking at the perimeter of all these things.
Wisdom living in the highest of places, wisdom hiding in the lowest of places.
All these things a lesson as black strands of hair turn grey, as old life fades away and new life begins.
Eyes of a babe as it takes it all in, processing information.
Practical applications and fleeting glimpses of sanity and insanity.
Whole societies falling because of conventional wisdom, rising from the ashes because of it.
So many having sought wisdom standing on street corners yelling it in broken sentences.
Victims of not being able to accept it's truth, it challenging the threshold of their existence.
Wisdom taking no pity on the weak or the strong, no regard for the mother nor the father.
Wisdom does not discriminate nor is based on age, once a person is burned they know 🔥, once wet they know water.
Wisdom so simplistic in it's simplicity is the hardest thing to find, it the direct enemy of closed minds.
Wisdom standing at the edge of blackness tattered and torn, wisdom rising from the depths having survived the storm.
