Cleverness


A clever man’s urges took control of his cleverness once and it seemed like he had lost it. But then he found it again and realized that it’s the urges that need to be taken care of. ‘Cleverness has its own advantages’ he thought and a wrought iron rod that stood in front of him in the form of a support pillar suddenly held a resemblance to that figurative pillar of strength he had been hearing about for a long time but had never had the chance to experience or witness. And witnessing this entire episode stood another clever man, now this second man was so clever that he was almost modest about his cleverness. ‘Cleverness has its own advantages’ the second man also thought to himself. Now if we realize that both of them had the same thought at the same thought we might be made to think that either they were that clever or cleverness also has a pattern. In either case our opinion won’t matter much as matter does what energy permits. In fact matter exists if energy permits.
                Across the road on the sidewalk lay a dog, who till some time back was intent on chasing a female dog. He had been made to rethink about his intentions simply because he, it so appears, was not in his own territory and his act clearly was a product of urges at the expense of cleverness. But intent was intent and hence only subsided after some wounds were sustained and some avoided only because of him coming back to his senses. Both men presently looked at the dog and despite the fog they could clearly see that hogging all the limelight in their own washed up eyes was presently a dog who till some time back was acting not so cleverly. ‘cleverness saved him today’ both of them thought and that at that moment seemed like a clever opinion but since it was more obvious than anything else, one could also establish that if we equate cleverness with practical the very obvious conclusion can be that obviousness at times compromises the value of cleverness.
