Just Wondering
I wonder how? I wonder why?
Just listen well and discern clear,
Urge you right now: open your eyes!
Sense a ground swell that knows not fear,
Thrill follows spill in some cheap talk.
Wise is the man who knows the truth,
Observe the chill as madness stalks;
Note how you can stake out real proof,
Deeds tell the tale where facts avail;
Etch in your mind what hard work buys,
Runaway sales cannot prevail!
Invest not blind the empty highs,
Nice is sweet spice that feels so good,
Glimpse hollow prize that kills your mood!
