TO YOU WHO ONCE TAUGHT ME

 

 

To you

who once

taught me

about Twain

and Fitzgerald

 

I say

what have you

really taught me?

 

and what

have I

really taught you

 

It is unanswerable

and yet to you

I salute not fully

knowing why—

 

simply because

you made the effort

to learn me something new
