W(h)ine like stale milk wrestled
From a withered breast
Stolen from the lip
Cheers
And a good health
Doesn't mean
A long life
And
A long life
Doesn't mean you've grown wise
But if you're not wise be honest
And if not honest be mild and
Kinder than the milk of humankind
From a withered breast
Stolen from the lip
Cheers
And a good health

A long life
And

Doesn't mean you've grown wise
But if you're not wise be honest
And if not honest be mild and
Kinder than the milk of humankind

Re. 4234
I LOVE that last stanza!
P.S. I was going to RL this but I'm at my max 🤔 ... It'll be my next add.

Thanks Lobo - just wish everyone would chill - so much hate they all missed the point

Kindness is the new wisdom. And the number one criteria of my inner circle.
Good write, Whale. Here's to sending a kind, loving light to shift global energy.

What does the number 4234 mean, if any?
I'm sorry if it is a question answered elsewhere.
I used to think that sour wine was not good, but then realised that there is a charm in the sourness, and in fact, lovingly tended home-brew tend to be sour. But whine, oh, that's something else...

It's a matter of taste bitter or sweet - absinthe
On the numbers you're the first to ask rather than assume - great to see u in my pages again
Stick them into Google next to "bible"

Thank you for replying. I like to ask questions but don't always get an answer.
It is cryptic! It says Greek for praxis, and then there is Hebrew which says 'a dance.' I need to look up Concordance to understand the ciphers, which seem to be an index of every word in the Bible - "Showing Every Word of the Text of the Common English Version of the Canonical Books, and Every Occurrence of Each Word in Regular Order: Together with A Comparative Concordance of the Authorized and Revised Versions, Including the American Variations; Also Brief Dictionaries of the Hebrew and Greek Words of the Original, with References to the English Words."
It is obsessive!

Beautifully written, full of nutrients and wisdom..
could not have conveyed this any better, than
you have.
Takes me to the times back when I younger,
going thru, yet would coming across older
people trying to talk to me about things
about life..
Naturally, my reply would be:
Yep, and the streets ain't no place kids lol,
and l laugh because they just automatically
assume..that with age - come wisdom.
Ah, what an idiom of falsity...
So, we must let reality speak for itself, eh.
great piece, must enjoyed.. though heavy
Loved this .
