Quatrain of Naked Wisdom

Naked Wisdom - unclothed wisdom

Wisdom, often fashioned in corners
of a scrofulous mind,lacking
influence, rarely
tested.

The occasional idea of miraculous
essence, sometimes squashed and
always softly
manifested.

It rises up from an ocean of thought,
a form, oozing wit, and taken from
life's shopping
cart,

O, thy dray of circumspection, quietly
pulled by humanity, naked of reason
and off to a vulnerable
start.
