      It could have been me,
      It might have been you.
      Race and color is baloney,
      When another hurts you!

      Three huge men, watched
      a New York woman die.
      They even shut the door.
      I was both angry and wanted 
      to cry.

      Her face was smashed by his
      gigantic feet.
      But those three men, who did 
      not a thing, explain that to your 
      maker when His face you meet!

      It's easy to stop disaster... stop 
      being a wimp!
      Open your mouth, distract them, 
      don't be a useless gimp.

      Here's a simple ploy, that stops 
      any bully of a man!
      Yell......"Your fly is open," he
      becomes dis-manned.

      I did that myself on the streets 
      of San Francisco!
      A man beating a woman in
      broad daylight, oh?

      Blood flying just everywhere, 
      pedestrians ignored it?
      I just got in his face, told him 
      to stop hitting her this minute!

      Don't ask me where that courage 
      came from!
      I just saw pain and wanted to
      stop the bum!

      He swore at me, in words quite 
      unintelligible!
      Turned angrily away, and ran on 
      the double.

      I helped the woman pick up her things.
      She said, thank you and went about 
      on about her meanderings.

      "Don't be a wuss, and ever allow another 
       to be beaten!"

      Being a good Samaritan means you are
      a credit to the human race.
      Something that neither time nor age can 
      ever deface!

      When police are not in the area to assist 
      you....
      Support your fellow human,
      Walking away, I heartily eschew!

       Perhaps it was two beatings, I endured in 
       Chicago Public Schools?
       That gave me the courage to make protecting 
       another, my life's golden rule!
