If true
that old age
is but a bad habit …
what can youth become
_____
Divorcing passion
from intellect
Two orphans
created
Homeless together
— inside of one soul
_____
If you want
to be free
First
be a prisoner
A captive
of prescience
An inmate
— of self
-------
Contradiction …
a privilege of freedom
--------
Knowledge is a prison
— and freedom its bars
--------
The pedantic
philosopher
Indistinguishable
— from the fool
