I Will Never Take Instruction from a Consonant
Whenever I’m down, and feeling
a little blue
I wonder whatever it is I
can do
What traditional learning
I can pursue
To recover the happiness I
once knew
I shun the transient, the
ever-new
The latest fashions the
unlettered construe
For I will follow Wisdom,
just and true
Wherever She leads me, my
whole life through
I will never take instruction
from a consonant
And I know, wise friend,
that neither will you
