"Rain", March 2nd, 2009

Note: By this reasoning, apparently we should all look up to meteorologists as the wisest people in our society.

The inexperienced fool sprints out in the rain
Then asks people as he runs why he's wet,
And everyone he asks believes he is insane.

The second time he might look outside to see if it is raining,
When it is, he elects to stay inside,
When asked to come outside, he chooses to abstain.

But one day he must leave in the rain again,
Now he's prepared with an umbrella,
While more of the world's fools praise him as a wise man.

But the man is still a fool, for he is out in the storm,
While the wise men have known the rain was approaching -
And have left for the day to a town which is clear and warm.
