The wise men, as it runs, Communicate with what Is used to be external to them And they're always laying plans. This is what with all their wisdom And experience of everyday life They are not aware of As they look at things askance.

Reviews of "The Wise"

Reviewed by Ronald Hull

Reviewed on February 4, 2017

I don't recall the wise ever looking at things "askance." Perhaps they are just observing things that don't fit their scheme of things, and therefore, are not considered to be wise. Unfortunately, these elderly are not of the current generation and therefore just don't agree with what the current generation is proposing, good or bad.
