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
