Book Excerpt

NINETEENTH MORSEL

PORTION I

callow upstarts
those who dare advise
hindrances to them

callow upstarts
heedless of counsel
unfelled by the mace
uncut by the blade
young and rash

callow upstarts
they shall not avert

work and study

To the philosopher
thoughts and writings
are his dear friends
exile?s release
from sycophants
wary of him
