A Jester. I have always wished to be a jester-- A clever jester who could guide the king With such veiled honesty That I would not lose my head, But with such an advisory tact that the outcome Would benefit the king and those in his kingdom. It would be nice to have a few more jesters Who might be heeded by our 'kingly' leaders, Guiding us to a long reign of peace in our troubled world. Frank Maurer 16 January 2023 1545 Hours
