I Am a Dealer In the Worst of Them
I am a dealer in the worst of them
ignorant, I shall be happy to make them wise
uncouth, I shall be happy to make them couth
timid, I shall be happy to make them assertive
enslaved, I shall be happy to make them free
indecent, I shall be happy to make them decent
insulted, I shall be happy to make them dignified
last, always I shall be happy to make them first
I am a deal in change to change others for good
life is not all about the best in this temporary world
human enterprise is the noblest of noble duties
making the best from the worst is glorious duty
but making the glorious into the worst is murder
how many murders have you committed from birth?
Say none and you have committed another one!
