lead with generosity, feed with fish

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day;

teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime

But through your eyes

people in need are just clutter

littering the pristine ground of your mind

Soiling the fresh taste of independence

inconveniencing america's royals


Give the man some sustenance, I say.

Two fish for him, perhaps.

Two fish to survive and thrive and have the ability to fish

Nourish him because he is human,

Then, fill him with skills that will aid him later.

But if we don’t feed the man before it's too late,

he will inevitably perish.
