Learning the Alphabet


we learn the alphabet in order
to excel at life; the hierarchy
of the letters, that B must follow
A teaches us to respect our
teachers and parents.
once we learn the alphabet,
we can’t throw tantrums
in public or later, curse
at our boss without getting
the dreaded “F” marked
in red pen.
and once we get to Z,
we only know there are no
more letters, but we have no
more answers.
