Dumber than they look
Smarter than you think
and, then some
wayward feeling
falls in a ‘well’s hole’
floating in
scum-sucking
drink
inactive
rage turning
into peaceful
apathy
used to be
handsome
beating
my
drum
loud
and
manly
godly
thoughts
escape
the sage’s
ageless
mind
who gave them all up
for
his last popped cork
of wine
pouring
where he
left off
in a
glass of
insight
into raging
hormones
written
in
a swine’s
flashing
timeline
even
crazier
than
playing
an
overture
to his
hostage
tied up
to a hard
wooden chair
with
a castrated
ransom
reading
quotes in
kind from
Socrates
of this
we toast
who
so rightly
said…
‘The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing’…
the philosopher’s
most terrible
curse
and
righteous
host…
