Poetic Thoughts - Sage to Student - by C.W. Pruitt II
posted: May 25, 2018
Our culture bombards us with material distractions which often interfere with us obtaining the highest levels of Love. This poem is a plea for finding what is truly important:
Sage to Student
You are young
and undisciplined.
You are easily
distracted by what
your senses find pleasing.
Therefore follow me.
The example I give
will allow you the
same divine connection
that I have.
Observe how I die.
The beauty and perfection
of my sacrifice will
be an undying source
of inspiration.
