WISDOM OVER KNOWLEDGE


 

A trace of acumen drifts across the night,

Like a keen sense of quietness in our breath.

In stillness, where the mind gives up its fight,

The deepest silence speaks of life and death.

We gather knowledge – facts and noted themes,

The schema was built to organize the brain,

The ego navigating conscious dreams,

The neuroplastic shaping of our pain.

Yet facts alone are only steps we pave,

While wisdom is the light by which we walk.

Metacognition watches from the cave,

Beyond the noise of all our clever talk.

And love – that sweet attachment of the soul,

The heart’s self-actualizing highest state,

Restores the fractured spirit into whole,

A soft alignment where we integrate.

Yet every breath, each neural spark, each grace,

The mind’s vast depth, the love we carry through,

Are held within a grander, sacred space:

But glory, that belongs to God, not me or you!
