The Old Fool

The Old Fool

Realizes

He Once WaS 

The Wise Fool

A Thin Line

Divides

Wisdom

And

Folly

Due To Age

Senility 

Sets In

And Makes Him

Fuzzy Crazy

So Bloated

Like A Toad

He Fights

Cancer

Filled With

Sickness

Pain

Poison

Corruption

Power Abuse

And Greed

The Old Fool

Fumbles

Further

With Foolish

Advice

And

Bad Company

Goodwill

Goes

With The Rot

His Fame

Turns

With 

The Twist

Of Fate

Blame

Rains

On His Head

As People Rise

In Anger

And Hate

His Decisions

Are Flawed

His Actions

Invite Critique

His Folly 

Attracts Ridicule

So Someone

Who Once Was

Wise Can

End Up

The Old Fool

When The Can

Of Worms

Spills Into Public

View

Praises Seem Few

Mistakes Too Many

To Count

Hence

The Old Fool

Becomes Entangle

In Endless Disputes

In Haste He Acts

At Leisure He Regrets

Three Best Keys

Best People

Best Assets

Best Systems

Are

The Three Best

Keys

To

Success

The Wise Fool

The Wise Fool

Sits High

In Station

Stature

He Rests

His Head

And Contemplates

Deep And Long

Suddenly

Spotlight

Shines

On His Grey Hair

And Wrinkled Face

It Is Almost

Time It Seems

For Him To Go

Despite

His Power And Glory

His Story

And Legacy

Would Be Told

For Generations

To Come

History

Would Draw

Lessons From 

His Acts

In Right Or Wrong

Would His Name

Be Fragrant Fame

Or Stinking Shit

All Would Know

In Fair Judgement

Based On 
Truth,Justice And Right

So The Higher

The Office And Honour

The Greater 

The Public Trust And Splendour

The Heavier

The Duty And Dignity

The Weightier

The Responsibility and Obligation

And

The More Far-reaching

And Important

The Impact

Of

One's Acts And Works

The Wise Fool

Is Sane Enough

To Know

Age Is Catching Up

And

Time Is Running Out

For Him

To Do Good 

And

Right
