I took lessons of humility
from the worn roadside stones.
Nothing can teach civility
so well as the shattered bones.
That’s why my posture is queenly
and my manners are aesthetic.
Your sense of beauty knows so keenly
when reality is prosthetic.

Wow. If I could write like you, Un, then I could call myself a true poet! You had me from these first two lines!

Learning from those who have been there before you. Laid the road for you. Thw word “civility” is clever, civil engineers lay the roads. Maybe that is what we are doing now?
Learning from the mistakes of others. The way in which you word it is beautiful.
Thanks

Thank you, Ry! Wow, a big song!
I decided to learn a bit more about this musical band and found this song.
Do you know this song?

Ah, yes, that’s one I was also actually thinking of! I like “100 Years” more though! Typhoon is one of my favorite bands. Their song “The Lake” is my favorite song of all songs, tied with Flagship’s “What It’s All About”.
