Have I been too revealing Employing too much wailing? Were the drums a bit too much With epic trumpets playing? Have I been too obtuse Or did I veer into rambling? Could I have better laid it out Without elaborating? Have I done justice to the discourse? Did I mis-count the charging horses? Did I include sufficient angels? Was I true to my sources? I trust that I did hold true To heavenly inspiration That the words will stand the test of time And bring true revelation But if I did stray from the truth If it all seemed way too bleak Please respond with due good grace It's only my first week.

Inspired by wonderings around the Old Testament schools of prophets in training. 1 Samuel 19; 2 Kings 2; 2 Kings 4.
