His Best Qualities

When is a fool a bigger fool than normal?
When he decides being just a normal fool,
Doesn't get quite enough publicity.
And hiding his ignorance,
Keeps his best qualities unexposed!
Especially when someone with intelligence,
Captures all of the attention.
And this solicits his jealousy.
