It is maze in which only the smart makes through it
It is a game where only the wise wins
It is a journey where only the courageous understake
It is risk in which only the brave overcome

The clumsy's get lost in the maze
The heedless loose the game
The cowards lose their way
The frightened remain domant

grown, Rolando's fissure
soaks words.
Most days he lies domant.

unannounced, sulcus scatter
secret codes.
day-to-day his labour unpleasant.

crafty is a snake
wise is a sage
This poem is really about how surprising a brain functions. When you least expects a flood of wisdom flows out of your mouth. Out of the blue we speak words that we didn't even know that we knew.
