Quatrain of Shrinking Wisdom

Shrinking Wisdom - and you thought you
were getting smarter

All knowledge comes to us
as if it has slowly
trickled
down,

What we know are ideas
captured from others,
few are
renown.

We learn the leftovers of
thoughts from minds
conjured up by
thinking,

Enjoy what you know, while
intelligence increases
wisdom is constantly
shrinking.
