Quatrain of Must Be Taught

Must Be Taught - yes you do

We do not have to be taught what
comes natural, only
what is
alien,

What is odd to us needs instruction,
after all, we
are simply
mammalian.

No one teaches us how to devour
food, but we need be
taught to
care,

Left alone in the world, we become
a low life form, we require
lots of guidance and much
prayer.
