I could have been big enough, <br /> I could have been mean enough, <br /> I could have been plenty nasty, <br /> BUT, I'm the guy that waited, <br /> by the door of your old church, <br /> last Thursday morning! <br /> <br /> I'm the one that tore it down, <br /> and put it back together, <br /> in the way your contract said, <br /> I am the one that didn't make assumptions, <br /> like all the others did! <br /> <br /> I'm the guy that fixed your copier, <br /> and got rid of the stripe, <br /> that the congregation has seen for years, <br /> and forgot that it was there, <br /> ... I'm the one that finally did it right! <br /> <br /> You won't see me again, <br /> I knew it when I did it, <br /> ... but, I have a smile on my face, <br /> that church on old Route 88, <br /> got exactly what they paid for this time! <br /> ...for a change.<br /><br />Barry Van Allen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/88-friends/
