The Fool

I lost out to the fool

who listened only to the proud

shut his ears to the complex

and shouted banalities out loud.

 

I lost out to the fool

who believed only the vain

graduated in the university

of who can I ridicule and blame.

 

I lost out to the fool

who trod the well-paced path

never strayed from its borders

now he will suffer my wrath.

Fool

◄ Lead me on

Death of cruelty ►

Jon .... I also read this a few times (enjoyed of course)

I don't know the circumstances behind this, but it would appear that some loud-mouthed fool thinks he's got the better of you.
I doubt that his victory will be long lived.
Bring on that wrath and let him have it

Cheers Kevin

If you see two blokes on bikes, last week of June, that'll be us!

Hi Brian, I hope 3 times enjoyed. ?

Sounds great. That's near where I work now - Hilversum. Although moving to Amsterdam next April. Enjoy the cycling.

Hope 2020 is good to you.

Jon.

Jon...I read this three times, something I rarely do.

BTW - going to Amerongen next year and cycling around the Betuwe area.
