A Wiser Man

Watch and listen, learn, then talk Wriggle crawl, then start to walk ingesting knowledge, form ideas discover pathways through the maze fully formed then take your stand unique among your fellow man using wisdom air your views be prepared for bad reviews attend and hear what others say Adjust, adapt and make your play Many minds applied before Have formulated truths Galore Though you think your concept cool Think it through, the golden rule ‘Better to say nothing and have people think you a fool Than to open your mouth and prove them right’
