Fascists, freaks, and fools alike
Can grab a pen and paper strike
Upon the world a poem clever
Stands the test of times endeavor

Nurses, doctors, dying patients
Crafting words of salutations

Students, house wives, drunken step dads
penning treasures on legal pads

Cousins, aunts, and uncles too
Granting voice to point of view

Actors, athletes, Death row inmates
Revealing how this sick world rotates

Preachers, Nuns, the Dalai Lama
Guidance through religious trauma

Fascists, freaks, and fools alike
Can grab a pen and paper strike
Upon the world a poem clever
Stands the test of times endeavor.

"The worst vice is advice" (Al Pacino, devil's advocate)
