Self-Guidance Using Prudence
My friend, cheer up Never lose your cool Act not like a fool Start your first step There is a sure remedy Find it out with hope Hard-work has a scope To hug it, be ever ready Time is very limited Waste it not my dear My words do you hear? Let not duty be omitted Thousand failures may arise No success may be met But, if optimism you...

The Prudence of Principles
Upon principles human minds uphold Spring wells of belief in the power Redemption renders in the stronghold Truth defends in every tower Where consciences care To sow seeds justice Dispenses with flair Despite the high price Principles and their disciples exact In circumstances so demanding They jeopardize the pact Dangled and spangled in a commanding Voice which multiplies opportunity Despite the temporary cost Paid and made in the dignity Peace...

On Titian's Allegory of Prudence
"Who is he, who stares back at me from the mirror? I am not him, with wrinkles and faded beard that is rough and inelegant, stained with soup and unmentionable Things. Ah, No: I am that handsome man who yet has gravitas, And is great in the world, admired and respected, Whispered judgments "He will go far; look...

Prudence, Prudentia - Cardinal Virtues 1
Judgement’s fine line runs betwixt Prudentia’s Right and Left hands. In her right, the mirror Offers serious reflection on life Lessons learned in crucibles of choice -- Wisdom bridles rash reactive impulse. But in her left is the serpent coil’d, Hissing, intimidating, strike ready With venom of conscience paralysis. Counting the cost, thinking alternative Courses to their conclusive end, is right. What motivates me to...

'dear Prudence'
Hell breaks loose through the trusting door Whining its splintering, wooden hinges Claws wrapping onto the arches beyond Gnarled feet pressed on the threshold Lower limbs jingling with sparky anklets Ready to catapult and kick with spitting mouth To shove its shine like a worthy prick It was time for her daily purges Peace is slapped about in her fickle hands and made...

Petal Power and Police Prudence
power, police and prudence, the mainstream monsters of mimicry, like patels of a flower playing far from the fulcrum, their power derived from dismal points interior, of state sustainance and centres, assistants arrayed according, to authority anchored beyond, to pry prudence on paupers, thus pour power like powder, on supra-orthodox options, and security sanity perforates without....

Prudence
They say that all things are allowed, And by this many oaths are vowed. Some say that alcohol may be drunk, Some vouch that tobacco is for inhaling; Bullies believe others' backs are theirs to spank! But Paul the man of epistles did say That all are permissible but all don't pay. Thus we may practice that which is of help, And...

Dear Prudence
I was given the challenge Well in truth it was a bet And the bet was to get a date With Prudence the librarian Whose coldness was legend It would be a tall order But I picked up the gauntlet And headed to the library I walked up to the desk And there she stood She was short in stature But imposing nonetheless Her countenance was severe Thick...
