People Call Him A Coward

People call him a coward because he won't use his fists. But he's not a coward at all, he's a pacifist. When he refuses to fight, many say it makes no sense. But he doesn't believe in fisticuffs, he's against violence. Because he won't fight back, a man picked on him and knocked him down. He refused to fight that man even though he was knocked to the ground. You can call him a coward if you want but it's not true. He will not fight people and that is a smart thing to do. People call him a wimp, they say because he won't fight, it's a disgrace. But if there were more men like him, the world would be a better place.
