Beware of Those that Offer Answers

Beware of those that offer answers.

There are two broad types you’ll meet,

The first are those that mean you well,

Others hide your ruin by deceit.

.

We need to follow guidance,

But at some point you must,

Forget the outstretched hand, sincere or not,

And in your own intuition trust.

.

Help isn’t always useful,

Recall the Hansel and Gretyl tale,

Those that promise to build you up,

Are sometimes reliant that you fail.

.

So I don’t mean for you to turn down friends,

I just caution that you may,

Be lead to destruction down the line,

By the face who bore a smile that day.
