“COMMON KNOWLEDGE”
If, you ask me… What I’m doing
I’ll mask and tell: – “I don’t know”
If, you ask me… What I do want
Well, I’ll grant… – “I don’t know”
Knowing: hope will always cope
Going: slope strengthens a nope
Sowing: how far to throw a rope
Glowing: sure to reap the scope
Certain, tactics & ethics will tire
And you’ll trench me ‘the worst’
‘Pressure’, it stretches the desire
And its host will quench a thirst
To take risks, be bold to achieve
To dream more, no petty believe
To right conjugate (now & then)
To shut a gate, to stop an ‘again’
