WIZ-dumb

wisdom
God made His
heavens and earth
and gave man freedom
to choose good o’er evil
in the folly of his heart
man became a dying sinner
thinking he could be a winner
nexus though he tears apart
choked by his stubborn will
free-dumb and wiz-dumb
his king-dumb’s worth
f o o l i s h bliss!

die
surely
you will not!
comes the devil’s
d e a d l y camouflage
t a s t e and be astounded
as dumb scales fall from your eyes
you will be as g o d s of wiz dumb
h i n d e r e d not by legal t e d i u m
naught is hidden from the w i s e
though to earth i’m grounded
