Shepherd
By Phalanx
What is the mission of one?
I would think in most cases a country undiscovered.
It's only natural to seek the soil we've felt in our bones.
A sort of blind archaeology, refusing to plant stakes
Just because your lost.
Hard decrees, I believe are for men
Who expect to much.
I don't think they've drank enough or
Beat themselves barely breathing to the extent
They finally understand, that's no way to lead.
It makes little sense to strap them to rockets
Pointing them in directions where you just finished
Building walls.
You're not asking them to think, you're demanding they believe.
So I offer you this to consider,
It's easy to become what you hate.
Trust me, I've done it.

What you say is very true. But people can be found, and when they are, it can be a great thing. 10.
