Poem: The Fool’s Wisdom

The Fool’s Wisdom

One who leaps forward without looking down,

carries his courage in a bag he once found.

Thinks to himself in thoughts of plenty,

searches for the answers in books too many.

Falls with a smile, his pride still in tact,

he planned his own death without an attack.

Those who look onward cast their own grin,

the warning was signaled, the Fool still rushed in.
