Poems About Wisdom by Top Critiquers
#wisdom
Listen to the silence
Living in the shadows, where there is no place to go
Living in the shadows, where there is no place to dream
Take a deep breath to fight against your fears
Live for the moment to understand your destiny
Listen to the silence to find the way
Do you remember when nothing was everything?
Lies,
Cause what sounded good to you determined your choice
Your knowledge is fading, and this battle is just the beginning
Living in the shadows, where there is no place to dream
Take a deep breath to fight against your fears
Live for the moment to understand your destiny
Listen to the silence to find the way
Do you remember when nothing was everything?
Lies,
Cause what sounded good to you determined your choice
Your knowledge is fading, and this battle is just the beginning

300 Yard Dash (FATBOY300PLUS)
The finish line looms
Yet he isn’t in a hurry
His strut
Solid
His love of words
Women
The coming up
Of the younger generation
As he reflects
And imparts
His wisdom
Solid
The world needs more men
Who are men
Unafraid to say
What’s in their
Hearts
On their
Minds
With the respect
Humility
Patience
And straight up
Truth
That is He
Saying it
How it is
Because that’s
Who he is
Aggressive
Affection
With that ...

soul
discretion divine in my hallowed halls
sanctuary of heart interpretated
secreting away my soul
lest anyone see how soft I am
my heart alters according to my need
with prayers rising to heaven
grieving inward with despair
silently uttering my cares
please watch over my family
down on my knees I give thanks
grateful for fraility, grateful for sin
the knowledge recieved, is hard born
wisdom immortal, mine
sanctity of feeling within
my sacredness understood
with great care, I observe
learning...

Who is it who is happy?
The mind is happy.
Who suffers?
The mind suffers.
Wherever these things arise, that’s where they cease

Benevolent Benefactor
There is no energy
except what you extend
via action or thought
The Universe
is a benevolent benefactor
who returns only
what you emit
No more
No less

Forever in my Memory
I'm looking at my hands and seeing my father
I do this often
He was a quiet man
I wanted so much more from him
His passion
An occasional embrace
Knowledge
I'm still searching in my hands
For answers that won't come
Still I try ...
And will continue to try
There's so many answers somewhere
There was life then death
I remain focused...

Conjuring your strength
Do you really know what is your strength and courage and perseverance. 🤔 When you feel that you are all alone, within the very foundation of your mind. 🧠 YET you refuse to bend down on your knees, for you remain resilient on standing on your own two feet. WITH the deepness of your own heart. 💖 FOR sure you have the ability to truly manifest, 👁️ that which you want and need, Even if it means there must be a sacrifice. 😔 TO be made of your own self and dignity. For sure everything comes at a price, To not to have to deal with, what you don't...

Tea Time
Tea for Time!
Not for the blind.
Rich in eloquence.
Undefined.
Alice lost in her mind.
A world she once knew,
Now unwinds.
Square and compass.
With a little sass.
Round and round,
The angled past.
Tea for Time!
Is this math?
Take a cup and make it last.
Repetition so divine.
Inside this lovely god of time.
Cronos loves his little Alice.
Locked inside her perfect palace.
Loonies make her lose her mind.
There is no brick road she can find.
Emerald city,...

Three wishes...
I want to take Ed Sheeran to the planet
Mars and raise little cuddly puppy dogs.
Elon Musk - make my wish come true!
I want to dumb down all the people to
a mental stage close to Down Syndrome -
To make the world more peaceful.
Scientists? Do this and I'll pay you with sex!
I want the DEATH PENALTY back in all 50 states
and all around the world! But I get to flick the switch and decide who dies!!! It would be so awesome!
God? Do I have your fucking blessing on this?

Bones
Stories nestled in my bones
are not silent storms.
My heart is haunted
by their primordial groans.
Yet so many scattered thoughts
go unknown.
Like the frantic way
autumn leaves are blown.
What decays becomes wisdom
for another day.
Skeletal stories now, the flesh of us
is gone.
Even though we loved from the core
of our jagged bones.
Human life seems just an agonized attempt
to be heard.

You
Reassuring and safe,
I like how I can come to you -
Knowing you will never judge.
Of course you'll express your view.
But everyone follows their own path,
However stupid, however smart.
Understanding, it's what you do!
I turn to you when I feel stuck,
Cos you always have the answer -
Like someone's beautiful mama would.
You hate that expression,
But I find you endearing.
Showed my own mom your image last night -
Asked her what she thought...
'She's nice, Billy,' she said,
Despite knowing nothing...

Don't give up the Ship!
Negate the negations... and...
see possibility beyond loss...
all throughout our hellscape land
to give your blues an Olympic toss!
See possibility below and above
dry pollen blowing off the trees
in automatic future love
undermining present disease...
which some will say must be removed
and often that is just the case,
but not before it's been well proved...
THAT WHOLESOMENESS IS LEFT IN PLACE!
So question those who double down
into violent decision.
So many now have etched their frown
into...
