Wealth of wisdom
is only  bought
with coins of pain.
How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

Then what I'd give to be a masochist xD

Idk how nice the work is, cuz somehow I feel if I've read enough poetry, especially Ancient Near Eastern wisdom poetry, I'd have encountered the same sentiment, stated in nearly the same way, multiple times.

Hi Dale-

I'd suggest scratching "is only", subbing "gained" for "bought", and bringing "with coins" into L.2, after "bought" (or "gained").

That's all,
Mark
