completely oblivious
to the genius in their presence
unable to nurture
slow painful torture

tried to contain the brilliance
but lacked proper training
turned to medication
failed attempt at saving

without the proper tools
an exercise in futility
made to look like fools
their true vulnerability

completely oblivious*
to his sagacious presence
if nurtured as needed be
would it have ended
so tragically?
