The Secret of the Wisdom

When worst got things, how was you? Steady on?Wheedling, or shockt her &you have been bad to your friend,whom not you writing to. You have not listened.A pelican of liesyou loosed: where are you?

Down weeks of evenings of longingby hours, NOW, a stoned bell,you did somebody: others you hurt short:anyone ever did you do good?You licking your own old hurt,what?

An evil kneel & adore.This is human. Hurl, God who foundus in this, downsomething … We hear the moresin has increast, the moregrace has been caused to abound.
