A man offered quite a sum
Of money to play
With my bum he’d pay
Until I reached out to his mum

The fear of God
Is the beginning
Of wisdom
Then what is
Wisdom

Wisdom is
The sum of
What one knows
Digested.

He loaned a sum

and ended being the guy's stucky

Count two as we're keeping a sum
And three is right here
Plus four for this tier
For five, all fingers and thumb
