THE PRESIDENCY
Those who wish to be President
Must practice what they preach.
For their people need inspiring
To believe what they teach.
Take heed therefore, unto yourselves,
You overseers of the flock
Or the voters shall cast you out,
For your futures are not of rock.
Life may place you in deep waters,
Though it doesn't wish you to drown.
It's your past record that lets us know,
Who you are as you smile or frown.
If you wish to be remembered,
From the truth you must never part.
Power corrupts the best of us,
When we stop listening to our heart.
