Today's Lesson
I've been schooled to be fooled,
As if taught by a court jester at last.
I've been drooled, to be ruled
By a goddess, yet that worship went all too fast.
I've been bested by those more rested,
As my resolve has waned and grown weak.
I've been messed with and thoroughly tested,
By a regal vision and all the mystique.
And yet I've been directed, then corrected,
Down a path of faith and belief.
Where I've been expected, if not suspected,
Of failing the course and any relief.
