letra de wisdom by the moon - russell nomer
they say a single morning paper holds a lifetime in a day
a mountain of ink and ledger lines, a tidal, roaring sway
but ink is only one small stream; before the press took hold
stories lived in voices, hands, and hearths — a world passed down, not sold
don’t bow to every headline, don’t swallow every tune
a river of raw data is not wisdom by the moon
separate the glitter from the seam beneath the gold
have faith enough to listen, then prove thе tale you’re told
old proclamations praised a light of rights born clеar and bright
yet office-holders outlast crowns and bend the people’s plight
they promise frugal cupboards, smaller frames of governance
but power grows like ivy — roots that choke the common sense
don’t bow to every headline, don’t swallow every tune
a river of raw data is not wisdom by the moon
separate the glitter from the seam beneath the gold
have faith enough to listen, then prove the tale you’re told
they joke about the little man who strode with mighty stride
and say the swimming creatures blink and never keep a mind
but truth is not the tally of the caricature you hear;
history is voiced and lived and shown — more textured than it’s clear
beneath the counterfeit there’s grain of honest, crooked truth
a sh-ll that nests a kernel, misread by later proof
so sift the choir of stories — weigh the lesson, test the claim
a wiser world is built by those who ask and then proclaim
don’t bow to every headline, don’t swallow every tune
a river of raw data is not wisdom by the moon
separate the glitter from the seam beneath the gold
believe enough to start, then check the map you hold
let faith begin the question, and let inquiry refine —
hold close the spark of confidence, but make sure it can shine
