The Scholastic Mechanic!

Please allow me to introduce, Without any pardon or excuse, A man who needs no introduction, To those he’s given instruction, A man who has always helped me, To understand extreme fallacy, Through guidance and edification, He spreads his extreme education, Now he never reserves his lessons, And always leaves his impressions, Upon those he teaches his schtick, For he is our scholastic mechanic, Always he tinkers under the hood, To find the best of what is good, And now without further adieu, I am proud to present to you, A man who’s mind always races, And affords us other head cases, A view most definitely skewed, By great wisdom and high I.Q., A man whom I proudly call my brother, Who’s humble wit makes him tougher, Than my boastful wages however manic, …Our G-Man the scholastic mechanic!

The Power Of Pride As I surmise all that is me strewn and cluttered, My conscious lies casually shorn and shuttered, For here lie the spoils of stubborn iniquity, I shuffle and toil, floundering in frailty. Oh what great havoc, what conscious so lewd, Creates such traffic which now spoils the fruit, Of truly righteous deeds committed by a scurrilous man, Of whom I could no better know, no better understand,

For there is purpose in pride, yet none in shame, As ambition carries us blind to who’s at blame, And just where is the woe when the devil may care, For we are soon found alone, our conscious left bare,

And as I embark into this desolate place, My horrors so dark, my fears crimson in taste, Forward I race into the perilous pit, With none other to blame for this simple life I quit. My Gull Wheels On a.k.a. Michael Wilson

For this terribly lost and forever forlorn soul, Is none other than me shivering and sniveling so, And as helpless as I suddenly appear to be, I now understand the strength pride provides so easily,

Thanks again Deborah... My brother is amazing but I also saw the divine element to this tale and used 'G' man instead of my brother's real name for this reason.... Very keen!
