Sagacity

Sagacity

 

Pulled from the beating heart

This quick agony

Spells

 

For what wrong thought to be

Became so easily

Right

 

So right the languid exponent

Of ready truth

Knew

 

With the arrogance of comprehension

Gave its struggle

Righteousness

 

And in the pity of hindsight

Woke consciousness to

Regret

 

For what right thought to be

Became so easily

Wrong
