Heed A Warning

Magnify a defect,

But first know it is one.

Over simplification,

Burns under the hot sun.

 

When it says hot,

Do we test it?

Or do we believe

It will burn if we do?

 

It will not be on an exam,

No, these are trial and error.

Or else we believe

It's better to heed the warning.

only he who drinks water knows whether it is hot or cold. . . exoggerated simplification sounds wildly, if not to say savagely to be burn by the demonish spirit within all of us. . . the caldrons have been kindled from time immemorial to be filled in immediately after the exam styled 'life.' I know, this time you don't mean it. till next time, G. Cheers, alex
