Desire & Wisdom
If desire is not conditioned by
wisdom ever profound,
it surely needs a
transformation,
A beguiled wish needs to be tempered by what is
reliably known of
creation.
Nothing worth having is seldom
free, no cause to surmise
about a coming life
surprise,
Desire left alone will devastate
the heart, reason keeps it
from slipping past the
wise.
