Soup From A Stone

I wanted understanding,
I got transmissions from the Oracle of Delphi.

I wanted the milk of human kindness, 
she gave me her brand of kindness,
which I was to lap up
like a cat laps up milk.

I wanted, "There, there my darling."
but as you said and it's true,
"You can't get soup from a stone."
