The Fool and The Wise
Honeylyn L. Casquijo loves to write funny poems which off course ended with lessons.
In his own world
he is the master of his soul
he never listens flattering words
and mendacious praises
he rather chirps with birds
singing songs of rhymes and rhythms
and decorates his face with a smile
whom no artist could ever paint.
He's the author of his fate
and writes his own story of life
he's murmuring his alphabet
he's preaching like a prophet
out from his mysterious novel
are unbelievable stories of unwell.
He's the only king sitting in throne
as if the mightiest lion in his jungle
no other man wishes to claim his crown
if all of a sudden the world comes to frown.
A wise man's words are full of wisdom
but he speaks amidst the crowd with sarcasm
he knows how to flatter
his tongue knows no manner
whether he says the truth or false
he should defend his realm's credibility
by misleading his audience with deception.
Competition in the world of man
is stiff and crucial
and wise man pretends to be wiser
so he can rule and conquer
unlike the throne of a fool
whom nobody wishes to claim
in the world of fame and glory
every deceitful man
behaves as if he is a wise man.
