A day flew by, and he did study,

Explaining that the book was his best buddy.

Another day passed, and he stayed still

With his immensely strong will.


A week flew by, and resistance came,

Simmering replaced the once-grand flame

That represented what he could do.

He continued, but began turning blue.


A month's progress, and he grew sick,

However, he believed some rest'd do the trick

And push him back on the desired track

- it never did. He became one of a pack.
