Recruitment Advice

The powerful favor the sacrifice
Of the wise above a fool’s sacrifice.

A fool doesn’t know how to do evil
Properly, doesn’t understand evil,

While those with understanding will know why.
If they fail, the powerful will know why.

You can corrupt someone with the wisdom
To distinguish foolishness from wisdom,

But the feckless are like buckshot, at best,
And rip up the worse no worse than the best.

So, the powerful accept gifts of fools
And use them where it’s useful to use fools,

But they set their sights on luring the wise
Who know how evil could be otherwise.
