The Fool and His Mouth are Not Often Parted

Those that knew him

thought him the fool

his mouth would run on

repeating words and ideas

he had heard

but never really understood

Not knowing nor understanding

half of the issues

he attempted to share

attacked his credibility

within the whole of what he would say

making him

unbelievable to others

All that he claimed to believe

had belonged to others

he had never taken the time to think

and make these beliefs his own
