In my private room
I talk to two teachers:
God and dog.
My God-Teacher
Teaches me how to
Lead and Guide.
My dog-teacher
Teaches me how to
Follow and Serve.
My teachers
Are supremely
Satisfied with me.
My God-teacher
Has made me the
Leader and Guide
Of the cosmic gods.
My dog-teacher
Has made me the
Follower and Server
Of mankind.
