wholly wholly wholly

and kisses are a better fate than wisdom

since feeling is first


who pays any attention

to the syntax of things

will never wholly kiss you;


wholly to be a fool

while Spring is in the world


my blood approves,

and kisses are a better fate

than wisdom

lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry

- the best gesture of my brain is less than

your eyelids' flutter which says


we are for each other; then

laugh, leaning back in my arms

for life's not a paragraph


And death i think is no parenthesis


~ e.e cummings

I like wisdom too, but I also like giving up entirely into things. But it might be true that those two states of being are not so related. And now, either way, it is time for bed.
