If you are the shepherd <br />and they, they're the flock <br />then I am the wolf <br />that howls and prowls <br />in the woods that are dark. <br /> <br />If you are the teacher <br />and they, they're the class <br />then I am the inspector <br />that watches and growls <br />in the place that makes marks. <br /> <br />If you are the businessman <br />and they, they're the staff <br />then I am the tax man <br />that checks for your tricks <br />in the place that demands. <br /> <br />If you are the landlord <br />and they, they're the tenants <br />then I am the squatter <br />that sits and debates <br />in the house that empty; deteriorates. <br /> <br />If you are that someone <br />and they, they're just anyone <br />then I am the one <br />that watches and waits <br />in a house that is empty; deteriorates. <br /> <br />If you are just any one <br />and they, they're one too <br />then I am the one <br />that will always be you.<br /><br />David Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-they-anyone/
