Beware of Wisdom

In case you’re an artist, beware of wisdom Experience brings reassurance That you have developed yourself into system Through years of work and endurance But don’t fool yourself with a pretty deceit You can’t do it right, though you try Experience tells you to do what you did But anyway, it’s a far cry From works of the past, that achieved a success Now you want to generalize But the more you come up with better be less The wisdom you gained isn’t wise Cause its dull as a hell, and was meant to be this Who told you that art should be limited? Your sycophants laugh, cause they know what is missed You can’t afford one more naiviety.
