'Wisdom Poety' is a modern term for what is properly called 'Gnomic Poetry': that is a poem which directly offers advice on how to live your life.
The Anglo saxon poem 'The Fortunes of Men' describes lots of different ways that you can die prematurely - and then says that since dying prematurely is so common you might as well just let God deal with it.
