The more we think we know,
the more deceived we truly become
Accumulating knowledge
—the deception of time
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2017)
The Final Match
If doing what’s right and winning,
could only be the same
Our world would strike the final match
—all politics in flames

Well stated, Kurt. 'Knowledge' ain't where it's at. 'Wisdom' is the goal, is it not?
Yes. Transcendent wisdom
Thanks
Kurt
First Poem: Aristotle said it, Einstein said it, and now you.... Well written, you are in good company!
Second Poem: So true! And I think both Aristotle and Einstein would agree.
I knew that graduate degree in Philosophy/ Theology would
someday prove worthwhile.

Thanks, Fred!
