Relearning
So much of what I thought I knew
Wasn't even close to true
My parents taught me how to eat
White bread, sugar and feedlot meat
In school I learned how to be controlled
Sit still, keep quiet and do what you told
The Navy taught me how to march and sing
And that my C O was just like a king
Now 60 years have come and gone
And I'm up and reading before the dawn
So many books so little time
I'll study, learn and write another rhyme
