Economy of Effort

Gentle are the men who know of the world in simpler terms.

For how far can we propose to buy time,
When every penny we spend,
Buy us back, with double the price,
And half a thought.

    Most of your poems/thoughts that I’ve read so far are unspoken blatant gospel truths that we just refuse to acknowledge! This one tops the list for me.

    Lol sorry for stalking your site.

        My mind is loving it, all of your poems are excellently written and thought-provoking. I am around “November 2019”. Waiting for your new work too.
