Who is Truly the Fool?

The Fool wanders through life

never seeing into the mists

of the future

content in his ignorance.

The Average Man sees a light

in those same mists

and chases it,

for it is his dream in life.

A Wizened Man sees not one light,

but a multitude,

and with higher understanding

chases many.

A few like myself see through the mists

and know the lights to be

as stars on a clear night, far out of reach

and wonder;

Who is truly the fool?
