When he garrulously complained about
The evils of this material world
Blind eyes, closed minds, filled with ignorant doubt
Dissatisfaction gradually unfurled
His garrulousness caused anger from some
But never was he discouraged by this
Like the persistent beating of a drum
His quest shined on despite man's foolishness
