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
