Worthies
from How To Die Laughing
by Pablo Byrne
1: WORTHIES
There are some Who by coniving and breaking all rules Through lying and talking to us like fools Seek a way to change the World Maliciously they will use bluster To rouse, incite and muster Build up false hope and faith As they pave their own paths with gold

And there are others Through resistance and resiliance With persistence sometimes brilliance Will create something to behold Uniting and not dividing us They delight in and take pride in us People who really earn our trust So most of us feel involved
And then there’s we the people Though not one, nor won over by deceit Nor ready to run, nor be run over in defeat Just because someone’s ideas are extolled Doesn’t mean that they are right Or that our dreams are trite We always need to fight for our beliefs Hold fast in our resolve
