I am not currently blissfully unaware.

Knowing the Word

does  not

bring understanding.

Stringing together the mouth sound chains,

Is this the shape of comprehension?

 

Lay your foundations carefully,

it is said.

Plumb the dust of your own creation

and wear the guise of the... Ha!

Idiomatic.

 

Courage, Wisdom, Foolishness

The light on the clockface never changes,

Unless,

unless I 

turn off the light.
