Wiser

 


Older now.

Do I dare say old;

yes, okay, old.

And wiser?


Each night the events and words of the day rotated,

a sluice gate opens

and more knowledge is allowed to escape.



You ask my advice;

I give and am wrong again;


there are experts, historians on both sides of every conflict

and still it is the old wars that occur.


Because, in the end, everyone follows their now

no matter the age-old mistakes

and when, again, you ask my advice, I will keep mum

until I give it.
