Beware of the stick figured man, <br />because no one can do what he can. <br />No event so frivolous, but fruitful, <br />because it was all a part of the plan. <br /> <br />His exuberance might be varied. <br />His tone and tempo might sway. <br />There's one way this goes and everyone knows <br />that they'll take it all, anyway. <br /> <br />No use for candor or limericks. <br />They laugh, trot, or wink to avail. <br />But the objective of stick man is to do what he can <br />to make sure that the mast sets sail. <br /> <br />So we all watch with feverish eyes <br />because he can make us all a fan. <br />Devoting himself to sharing his wealth. <br />Hail! to the stick figure man.<br /><br />Kellie M.
