The Man In the Middle

The man in the middle is given to fiddle, not wrestle with questions regarding the Earth. He'll dither and fuss, leave the answers to others, not caring a jot what they're worth. This man's in a bubble, ignores all the trouble afflicting his neighborhood, even his State, he'll avoid disputes and strong disagreements, and even the clearest of issues at stake. He'll take a position one way or the other, there'll come a day when he'll dither no more, no try now, just do, with the best of intentions, when he'll do his damnedest to settle the score!

Thanks Becca. Philosophy was one of my majors at college... I guess the discipline kinda stuck with me... Best wishes, Keith 7
