'kasa' - Truth and Wisdom 1

Meaning is meaningless, dead; for Life holds meaning Don't be Terrible when Troubled, to avoid a Terrible Trouble Death is a way-off Life mastering Life is a share waste of Time, we are not here to stay How Foolish are you? Measure it to grow Wise A toddler's wisdom surpasses that of a furious Wiseman The drum beats of the Wise, falls flat at the dancing feet of a Fool Knowledge dies, Wisdom lives beyond death Confusing the Cock's cough with its crow, wakes the Morn early a Roof is the Building. So is Man, Life the Body is filled with Pain but man never get used to it a yelling Truth is a silent one a Knock goes further than a Scream when at a King's door-step ©Kofi Asokwa-Nkansah
