It is about a man
simple and smart
dignified and gentle
well dressed and stylish
honest and earnest
I would call him great
as I love his charisma
admire his etiquette
adore his integrity
like his speech
many would not go with me
have a penchant for ostentation
an inclination for vanity
a wish for authority
would equate him to an ordinary
would not vote for him in elections
would not care to respect him
would not present an award
he would as most of us
live unknown and unseen
die unhonoured and unlamented.
