The Alleged Wisdom of Tenure

Some say knowledge comes with age

But does wisdom really lie with tenure?

Or does it arrive with experience?

In the same vein

Is naivety bound only to the young?

Is ignorance restricted by adolescence

With some cosmic transition into an intelligent adulthood?

Logic tells us this cannot be

A man who’s lived his entire life in luxury

May never know the pains of a wounded youth

An aged entrepreneur is his retirement

Could never know the trauma of a young soldier returning from war

So, would not circumstance be the judge of discernment?

For it are the events in an individual’s life

That truly define their understanding




Sort of a work in progress, once again written at 2 AM
