Entrepreneur
How do you define it, Sir
What, I asked
Knowing I was better than a pronoun chaser
Entrepreneur, he replied
Everything to gain and nothing to lose, I said
That is the only man that takes risks
Defying laws and regulations
On the blind side
Breaking codes and rules
To pile up pockets full of pence
And then at the narrow pinnacle dares
To erect a fence
As if to hide the greedy evidence
Read carefully
For the first part is an observation
And the second part the hesitation
That separates all of us
I onced searched my pockets all day
To find in them only dust.
