We Are All Essential Poem by Oluwatosin Thomas

Heed to the state of the insufficient ones,
In it you march in the wisdom of the ages.
Listen to the mantra of a child,
With it you comprehend in black and white lines,
Filled with a lot of accepted pages.
.
Stay close to the expressions of the fools,
Absurd it force seem,
For they ain't thus far tarnished,
Freeing their minds,
Speaking naively the approach they feel.
.
Pick on every terminology of elders,
In it you are reborn,
Learning from their habits and pains,
Experiences you know how to in no way amble in,
For state of affairs aint the same.
.
In the view of today's world,
Humanity isn't for the astute alone.
For in the wisdom of prudent and the fools,
Today we behold.
