A world of splinters
embedding themselves in the flesh;
the spirit surrounded by a crown of thorns;
pangs of received and on-others-inflicted wounds
tormenting any hope of durable reconciliation -
the birth of wisdom is suspect to mockery.
Maybe, it should accept and succumb
to ignorance and impotence.
