You Can'T (Nah Sir and No Ma'Am)

You thought that you fixed it But it ain’t never been broke… You stroked the spirit, with your fiery words. Mismanaged a genius mind, thought it absurd… Thought the life was subdued to succumb… How untrue for it had just begun… Exclaimed that you tried to break this spirit Then another exclaimed the red wagon you would fix it… Many have tried, with these rhetorical okie-dokes, Don’t you know by now~ that you can’t fix That which has never been broke (It’s not right to keep trying to break the spirit of a positive mind just too set an example for others... Think about it)

This is excellent philosophy. This is a favorite cliché from the military, "Don't go fixing it if it ain’t broke!" I have heard it so many times from commanders speaking to their troops. There is reality and gold in those words. Great job! ~ Joseph
