Poem
Did you ever feel like you were fighting the Chinese army In had to hand combat, you can never stop the flow You are thinking, :God there has to be another way" You just have to reverse their psychology Or you are out of bullets and you are at The Alamo Your best ammunition is to pray Several years ago I had a low paying job in construction My boss wanted to be Hitler, a slave driver No matter how hard I worked, he wanted more All it was doing was my destruction To him I was just a gopher So I had to change the numbers in the score Working overtime, 7 days a week, I got tired So early one morning, I went to his office to have it out I knew that I had to go about it in a different way One wrong move and I was fired Made it short and sweet, left little doubt He listed to what I had to say "You know last night, I prayed hard for you" Dropped his pen and his eyes got big, I had his attention Like the fear of God was in his soul by what I had to say Not giving him time to think I said, "might do it again tonight too" "But did think that I would bring that to your attention" Almost humbled he said, "Why would you do this for me" "Well I figured that a feller like you needed a prayer" But be careful you are not out of the woods yet" "And No Sir, I don't want an apology" "But wear a hard hat when you go out there" "just thought that I would tell you so you don't forget" "Why one of those old falling blocks could reverse your psychology
