~Wisdom and Nonsense~
An Original, Zero AI Involved Poem
by Duncan Cary Palmer
"I've figured it out;
So why should I care?"
Of wisdom and nonsense
We each flaunt our share.
Our IQ has failed us;
Not many are wise,
Nor mighty, or noble,
(Save in our own eyes).
"Fools for Christ's sake,"
Apropos epithet.
We imagine as gospel
Truth not settled yet.
Iron strikes iron,
That's how we get sharp.
Let us speak face to face
And step out of the dark.
Traditions, confessions,
and creeds are all flawed.
Shall we open the scriptures
and learn from our God?
