A trilogy of shorts

Three small thoughts...

By Ken DonnerPublished 12 months ago 1 min read

1.

Tickle your demons,

Distract them with laughter,

It keeps them off guard,

They forget what they're after.

2.

Knowledge and wisdom,

Not quite the same cup,

One is knowing the answer,

The other when to shut up.

3.

We're so often confused,

With our uncertain ways,

We'll believe criticism,

But can't accept praise.

About the Creator

Ken Donner

Been writing since I was 9 years old or so.

Can't help myself.

It's how I'm wired.

A multitude of verse.

"I may never learn to fly, but keep the sky above me open, just in case."
