WIZ-dumb

(foolishly bereft of wisdom)  
♪a rhymed, mirrored double octet♪  

“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools…” (Romans 1:22 KJV  
 
§  
by  
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!  
the  glum  
cry  
§  
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  
i   m a n   s t i l l   at  large  
f r e e   to   r e v e l  
in  this  plot  
sorely  
sly
