"Foolish" (Patreon)

Foolish then and foolish now again

I pricked my finger on the rose and then

Temper my surprise when it pricks me again

I should’ve known it then

No reason to go back again

But what if this is different then

I wouldn’t have to ache again

But foolish is now as foolish was then

The prickly pricks me again

Why do I repeat what I learned then

I disrespect my pain again
