Do scatter your attentions so cheaply
for deep deep down
you know really that they are worth nothing
you toil so hard
from fleece spun to woolly white piffles and tosh
but its fit only for you
for due and worthy attentions are sought reverently
and never the cheap ones
from the cranky attention-seekers who in disturbed malaise  
stones their attentions to others in angst
those in revered attentions owns them only to share with dignity
never needing to scatter them cheaply
from notable sublime comes prudence and wisdom needless of show
self assurance and probity never wanton
from the base comes baseline effusions carrying due effluents inherent
"There is no elephant that complains about the weight of its trunk. No elephant is burdened by the weight of its tusks."
"One who possesses much wisdom has it in the heart, not on the lips."
