Lessons Are There to Be Taught

The lessons are there,
To be taught.
But too few have the patience to learn.

Believing themselves already with class.
Skipping to miss a comprehension for them,
That never occurs in their minds to stir.

Since a yearning for it stays left unearned.
To leave the value of understanding,
None of their concern.
