Jackasses

i told them something thay
had missed in the quest
for a solution

something so simple they
never had thought about it

there was no compunction in
having missed it all this while

there was no feeling of regrets
of the lost time even

there was not even the gratitude
that someone had out of the love
helped spread his knowledge

i decided that i was in the wrong place
nobody there really loves to learn actually
either that or they are all jackasses
