Scratching the surface
Barely started, but
Much is found quickly
Slowdown and digest
Carefully sift through
These are life’s rhythms
Known by me
Known by you
Give things a chance
To naturally unfold
Don’t assume anything
Many have and
Before they can open it
They have slammed
Shut the door
Life is full of scratching
Searching for the new
Refining what we treasure
Repairing what we threw
Wisdom is an asset
Age usually required
About the time acquired
Aren’t we all mired
Under piles of stupid?
Bad decisions and worse
The tools of the feeble
The bed of human curse
When will we ever learn?
