You Have One Job

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 21:47 -- mmcrath

You have one job 

...to teach...

You have one job

Simply to lead

To keep order and peace

To help me reach my highest potential

To help me see things about the world

And myself that I never understood

You have one job

"I need your help"

"What's in it for you?"

I honestly have nothing to offer 

But you still have one job

"Don't do it that's fine I'll find someone else"

But that someone else may not be the right person

From future President to present Pothead

From future Cop to present Criminal 

From future Educator to present Extortionist 

You have one job...
