Wisdom

John Gorka

Wisdom exists though it's not commonly found

It's got the lonesomest howl of any dog in the pound

Wisdom persists,

Wisdom swings free

What once worked for you, will not work for me



Wisdom will stick, it's a permanent bond

It tends to resist all the scum in the pond

Wisdom will stay,

Wisdom hangs on

It's not like the news which is already gone



Wisdom resides between salt and sky

I'm too mean to quit or too dumb to try

It might come soon.

It sure comes slow

It's not all the facts, just what you need to know

Wisdom says so



Wisdom will fit, it won't use much space

Against all odds with no chemical trace

Wisdom hangs on, it knew your face when you were young

Wisdom arrives like a crude afterthought

It's modern value played down, because it cannot be bought

Wisdom will stick, adhere to your leg

It comes after the chicken, it's shaped like an egg



Wisdom's still free, but it doesn't come cheap

It's found in your dreams not on the nights you don't sleep

Wisdom persists, it has an elegant glow

It mostly consists of what you know you don't know



Wisdom hangs on, saves wear on your lip

It won't go to waste, it shoots from the hip

Wisdom will cry, it will follow a storm

Make your ice cream cone hard and you coffee urn warm



Wisdom exists, though it's not commonly found

It's got the lonesomest howl of any dog in the pound

Wisdom resides between salt and sky

I'm too mean to quit or too dumb to try



Wisdom and I
