I Don't Know Much But... Poem by Qiniso Mogale

I don't know much
but I know that God sustains the universe
I don't know much
but I know that many people are misinformed
Many people know not that they know not
I don't know much
but I know that many people are not what they claim to be.

I don't know much
but I know that this world is coming to an end
I don't know much
but I l know each day that passes by draws me nearer to my death
I don't know much but I know that
common sense has never been common
I don't know much but I know that
few people learn from other people's mistakes.

I don't know much but I know that
all that glitters is not gold
I don't know much but only a
few people search for true wisdom
I don't know much but I know a number of
educated fools
I don't know much but I know
that all is well that ends well
I don't know much but I know
that it shall be well with the righteous
I don't know much but
I know that my Redeemer lives.
