There is no fool like the one who walks among the Earth.
It is not the fact that he walks,
that leaves him so inept.
No!
It is the fact that he doesn't see,
he doesn't know,
he doesn't think!
There is no fool like the one I see so often.
Flitting about,
unable to see that truth.
He's throwing his life away!
Leaving no future.
There is no fool like the one who lives in himself.
Thinking of nothing but the next moment.
Never considering the past.
Never thinking for the future.
There is no fool like the one who doesn't think.
There is no fool like one of no mind.
There is no fool like the one of the world.
