Poem Artwork

The sagely minded men look

On what is deemed necessary

As unnecessary, and therefore

Is not at war within themselves.

 

Meanwhile, the masses of men

Deem what is unnecessary

To be necessary, and therefore

They're often at war in themselves.

 

Those who pursue this mode

Of internal fighting, resort to it

In whatever they seek for.

But reliance on such fighting

Leads only to self-destruction.

an interesting play on words for what is necessary and what is unnecessary. Things are not what they seem. John
