ONE PERCENT
How can you solve the needs of the world
When every window is a mirror
Reflecting only vistas of you.
How can you feel the pain of the hungry
When tail coated waiters serve you your meals
Hundreds of feet higher than the truck on the corner.
How can you embrace the common man
When you consider him covered in germs
Wanting a cheerleader more than a guide.
How will you acquire respect thatβs not bought
When you function on a ten year old level
With a Junior High bully as your mentor.
