Love Of Wisdom Poem by Noah Smits
Love Of Wisdom
The statement, "Mommy, I really love you, "
as spoken from a child's mouth
is truer than the assertions called true
which smug philosophers espouse.
I snort and strut in my virgin purview.
My cold, aloof, platonic spouse
is studied, known, and with class is passed through.
Austere and frigid stays our house.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Love of wisdom is cold, impersonal, and in a certain way inexact because it can distance us from the subjective experiences that should define us. Other people, not abstract knowledge, keeps us warm at night
