My Preacher


You have preached to me my whole life and were practically a knowledgable book. 

About life and how it rewards the crooks. 

But little did you know

Even a caring, honest person can be a successful domino. 

Why, here I am being a selfless and truthful child

Who has disproved your perspective defiled

Your sad tunnel vision of life.

I hope you're proud of me.
