The Mentor

In life's' living gutter I stutter and mutter Eventually i falter And did alter The very life's' meter That controls the matter A bitter - like better That butters the fighter And makes him go higher I needed a master Who'll help my desire And make me grow stronger Who is not a quitter Even though i falter And litter my letter With words of a gloater He'll bring me hither Oh! just like a father But i found another Relative or father Linked to my ancestor Acting as the elevator Taking me to the apex floor Terminator of the imitator And Creator the inspirator In the Orator I found a MENTOR
