A Different Kind of Fool

Which is more stupid?
One who doesn't know what to do?
Or one who knew what to do,
yet can find no willpower to do it?

Which is more foolish?
One who loved everyone and not oneself
or one who loved nobody but oneself?
Tell me, then.

Actors who have many masks
But forgot what their face looked like
Philosophers who have many wisdom
Yet applied none to themselves

Lovers who loved and hurt
Shut out love in return
Afraid of hurt, they become
Not Lovers anymore

One who sees illusions of the past
Yet whose feet walks the present
Looking ever backwards
Never to the future

One who cares yet pretends not to
One who pretends to care but in truth don't
One who is blind but pretends to see
One who sees but averts their eyes.

Which kind of Fool are you?
