Thank you for the honor and your hard work.
Patient, Timeful Warriors
Patient time sidles around knowing,
Knowing that you’ll eventually learn,
Learn that warriors full of brute force,
Force that turns into violent regret,
Regret that eats away your happiness,
Happiness that dissolves as its transient,
Transient time comes and goes, waiting,
Waiting patiently like the intelligent warrior,
Warrior who strategizes using patience,
Patience for the right information and time,
Time that’s right to act not go in unknowing,
Unknowing the dangers, pitfalls sown
By the hands of enemies whose joy,
Joy will be untamable at your fall,
Fall from grace, for you forgot that time
Time and patience have always been chief survivors.
