What I Know (I Think)
Feelings are real.
Thoughts need not
be believed.
Wisdom lies
in learning to
discern the two
within your own
universe
of awareness.
All advice self
destructs eventually.
Do not trust
anything a poet says.
Trust only in you,
I beg nonetheless.
Great words of wisdom that have double meaning due to the enjambments. Two ways different lines can be read which gives the poem more depth. 'Wisdom lies' is a good example of this.
I have found in my old age that discernment is terribly important. I will admit that the poets I have found here on Substack make me think, give me joy, and make me smile. So , thank you Mike.
