water off a tin roof

at a certain age
you stop giving advice.

the deaf ears surround you.
some young

some old.
some have already

been advised
on love and money,

how to save their soul.
wisdom

is best learned the hard
way.

with hand in the fire,
a barefoot walk

through the snake
filled woods, 
.
the easy way is truly water
uncaught

off an angled tin roof.
