SUMMA THEOLOGICA
an original tome
filled with
two million words of wisdom
a theological masterpiece
difficult to process
written in latin by St Thomas Aquinas
almost one thousand years ago
to make us think

make the world safe

not gamble with truth
come to think of it
i have been meaning to read it
but haven't because
i've been very tired
for the last few decades
Brilliant - it’s amazing how some tomes that sit on the shelf looking majestic while making us feel slightly guilty every time we walk past 😀
ReplyDeleteLOL. I so relate to your closing lines. Me, too. I am one tired old bird. In fact as I read the word list, what came was "words come slowly, because I am so tired." Smiles.
