Enoch 42 1 Wisdom found no place where she might Live, then a dwelling-place in sight In the heavens was made her right. 2 Wisdom went forth to make her home Where the children of human’s roam, And found no dwelling-place with them. Wisdom returned to heaven pro tem, And took her seat at angels’ hem. 3 Unrighteousness went out her door, Whom she sought not she found and more, And lived with them as the rains pour Upon the desert and in store As dew on thirsty land for shore. Tell simple truth and no man will believe, But look askance at teller to deceive. Tell fables ever more ridiculous And they become the truth of populace. Wisdom is not a widow but old maid Since all her beauty is a natural shade Instead of paint and plastic butt and breast. Unrighteousness is not a wife to test But more a whore without time to take rest. One turns upon the circuit of the sun Dispensing blessings to men on the run. One dances in the juggle and the crime Among the groves at Sunday Easter time. The wise alone distinguish which is one. From The Beloved and I by Thomas McElwain
