Quatrain of Teaching Elders

Teaching Elders - sometime is is necessary

Don't turn against your mother
or your father, for they
often know not
what they
do,

Place a larder of understanding
before your reasoning
and perhaps
guide their
view.

If you were born lucky you do
not have to place a
firewall between
you and your
kin,

If not, you must take the high
road, be honest and true;
do the unthinkable -
teach your parents
what is sin.
